Jay Leno has been released from the Grossman Burn Center following treatment for third-degree burns suffered while working on one of his classic cars, CNN reports. The comedian and celebrity car guy was burned while servicing a fuel line in his 1907 White Steam Car earlier in November. While working on the line, he was sprayed by gasoline, which was ignited by an ill-timed spark. A quick-thinking friend snuffed out the fire and helped Leno seek medical attention.
