A 19-year-old man is recovering today after he slipped and fell in the kitchen of a Council Bluffs restaurant Monday night, sending his hand and arm into a fryer.

Firefighters say the teen burned his hand and arm and likely has 2nd or 3rd degree burns.

Texas Roadhouse says it was an accident and that the teen did not have life threatening injuries.

The employee was taken to Creighton University Medical Center to be treated.
