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.
