TROY, MI — A tragic incident unfolded at the Oxford Center in Troy earlier this year, leading to the death of a 5-year-old boy in a hyperbaric chamber explosion. Police have recently made arrests in connection with the case, shedding light on the events that transpired that fateful morning on Jan. 31.
The young boy from Royal Oak was undergoing treatment in the hyperbaric chamber at the Oxford Center when the explosion occurred, causing not only his tragic death but also injuring his mother who was nearby. Fortunately, fire officials were able to confine the blaze to a single room, preventing further harm to others present at the center.
