FORT PIERRE, SD (KELO.com) — Two small boys burned in a home explosion near Fort Pierre last week are making good progress at a burn unit in St. Paul. Their infant sister and grandparents all died in the explosion. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been donated to help the family. But, a word of caution — online scammers are working the tragedy. Jessie Schmidt of the Better Business Bureau says the safest way to donate is to work with local groups and businesses.
Schmidt says if you plan to donate online, make sure offers claiming to raise money for the family are legitimate.
