I offer this without editorial comment:
The Moline Dispatch -- Headline Tuesday December 29, 1998: "Garage Gone
in Flash"
"Brad Gustafson is lucky to be alive....
....Silvis police allege that the three men stole the propane tank from
a neighbor's gas grill and were inhaling fumes inside Mr. Gustafson's
mint-condition Chevrolet Caprice.... According to Silvis police, a
cigarette Mr. Gustafson allegedly lit triggered the explosion"
-- story accompanied by picture of Mr. Gustafson with bandaged hands.
I kid you not.
