Severe burns as drunken mates set man alight at Roma party
A man has suffered serious burns to his body after he was set alight by his drunken mates at a party in rural Queensland.
The 27-year-old's mates had been drinking together at a house in Roma, six hours west of Brisbane.
Police said emergency services rushed to the Wheeler Drive home at about 3am on Sunday.
The man was immediately taken to hospital, suffering serious burns to his body including first and second degree burns to his back and hip.
It's understood the man was in pain on Monday but had been released.
Police originally investigating were not able to extensively question witnesses on Sunday because partygoers were still too intoxicated.
Officers have since conducted interviews, however, the man has not made a complaint.
