worried wat a way to go...

Dude throws keg on fire, it explodes, dude dies

Police were trying to determine who tossed a beer keg into an open fire at an outdoor party early Sunday, causing an explosion that sent shards of shrapnel slicing through a crowd of partygoers, killing one.

The explosion, which could be heard miles away, killed Sean M. Caselli, 22, of New Milford. Police say seven other people were taken to New Milford and Danbury hospitals.

Caselli, who lived with his family about a mile away from where the party was being held, died after being struck by a piece of flying metal in the neck, police said.

Seven people suffered non-life-threatening injuries, including burns and shrapnel wounds, police said. Over 50 people attended the party, which was an annual event, neighbors said.

"It was an unbelievable explosion," Greco told the News-Times of Danbury. "It rattled the street."
