Luckily, Storro was wearing sunglasses at the time of the incident and it is believed that they saved her eyes from damage.
The heavily bandaged victim made her first public appearance Thursday, a day after she underwent surgery to remove dead tissue and determine how badly she was burned.
Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Wally Stefan at 360-487-7425.
