Man in his 60s injured by exploding chlorine container

A man in his 60s was injured Tuesday morning when the container of chlorine he was using to dose his pool exploded.
It happened on a residential street near the intersection of Carling and Woodroffe avenues just after 11 a.m.
The man was conscious but suffered soft-tissue injuries to his face, arm and leg, said paramedics, who dressed his “multiple” wounds and started an IV to raise his falling blood pressure.
He was in stable condition at the trauma centre, paramedics said.
