ROSEVILLE, Calif. (CBS13) -- A teen has been arrested for allegedly throwing a hot spinach dish through a drive through window, leaving a restaurant employee with second-degree burns in his ear.

The 17-year-old male, who has not been identified due to his age, voluntarily surrendered to Roseville police Wednesday for the attack on the 21-year-old Boston Market employee Friday night.

Lt. Michael Doane said Tuesday the attack appeared to be a prank known as "fire in the hole," in which people video-record themselves throwing food or drinks into the faces of clerks helping them.

The suspect has been charged with suspicion of battery causing great bodily injury. He was released to the custody of his parents.
