Save you a click:

Robinson was making an appearance at the Mayberry truck show in Mount Airy when he was injured, campaign spokesperson Mike Lonergan said in a statement.

Robinson was treated at Northern regional hospital in Mount Airy for second-degree burns, he added.

The rest of the article is fluff.

didn’t immediately respond to texts seeking details on how and where the burns occurred.

My money is on; He burned his lips on a truck tail pipe.

I wonder if somebody saw him right before he burnt himself and didn't stop him
