Burn victim Michael Brewer tells of attack

There were things Michael Brewer remembered vividly about the day he was set on fire.

The Deerfield Beach teenager remembered the cool feeling of rubbing alcohol splashing onto him. He remembered the burning sensation, the impulse to run and jump into the swimming pool. He remembered wanting to stay in the water, and seeing the first results of the horrific attack he had just endured.

Detectives recorded their Nov. 23 interview with Brewer, 15, who survived burns over two-thirds of his body. Prosecutors on Monday released the recording, along with dozens of other documents related to the case.
