Two juveniles have been charged after several slides at a Massachusetts park were doused with acid in this summer and four children were injured, the Hampden District Attorney Anthony Gulluni said.
The juveniles, whose identities cannot be released due to their ages, have been charged with four counts of assault and battery on a child with injury and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon as well as vandalism, Gulluni said. His office did not say whether the pair have been arrested.

Shouldn’t it be ‘assault and battery acid ‘?
Follow the exit signs, dad.
Hey, thanks very much. I’m here all week. Try the fish.
I SAID get OUT! You’re SO EMBARRASSING!
Don’t worry, when you grow up you’ll make jokes JUST like me.
It was actually muriatic acid that had been stolen from a storage area on site.
Often used for pools.
It’s not hydrochloric, butit’s still very not great to get on yourselfEdit: I am sorry, I am dumb. They’re more or less the same. Muriatic is basically just hydrochloric with impurities.
What do you mean it’s not hydrochloric? Both are HCl, right?
Yeah it’s literally hydrochloric acid.
Yes; apologies, I am not a chemist, and I forgot that it’s just different names for variants of the same thing.
