The boys, five and eight, were onboard a Q53 bus around 5:30 p.m. Saturday, near Metropolitan Avenue and Woodhaven Boulevard, when 32-year-old Ivan Ivanov’s cleaner leaked onto the floor where the two children were sitting, according to authorities.

The brothers suffered minor burns on the legs and buttocks, and were taken to the hospital in stable condition.
