A 3-year-old boy who died Monday was the fourth person to succumb to injuries from a New Year's Day explosion.

A doctor says six others faced long recoveries in Arizona , where they were sent to be treated for severe burns.

The U.S. military flew six of the injured to Phoenix for treatment on Saturday because Hawaii 's lone burn center doesn't have enough capacity to care for all the victims.

Hawaii 's leaders intensified their calls to crack down on the state's vast illegal fireworks trade.
