SPRINGVILLE, Utah (AP) -- A Springville toddler is suffering from severe burns this morning after her dress caught on fire.
It happened yesterday morning.
Officials say the 18-month-old girl's dress touched a burning candle and burst into flames. She was at home with her father at the time of the incident.
The toddler suffered burns on her left side and back and was flown to the University Hospital. The little girl has both second and third-degree burns.
Police say they do not suspect foul play.
