Fireworks hidden in a Kansas City man's oven turned out to be a recipe

for disaster when the man blew up his oven during dinner preparations.

According to Kansas City Assistant Fire Marshall Jim Duddy, the

explosion occurred early on the morning of the Fourth of July at the

home of a 28-year-old man who had spent the night celebrating with

friends. The group, who had been drinking heavily, were shooting

fireworks off for several hours on Tuesday night at the Northland area

home.

Neighbors became annoyed with the noise and called the police. When they

arrived someone in the group stashed the fireworks in the oven, but

neglected to inform the homeowner that they were there. Later, when he

turned on the oven to bake lasagna at 3 a.m., the kitchen was blown to

smithereens. Duddy concluded that flying glass had caused some injuries,

but otherwise no one was hurt.

************
A gang of four men responsible for 20 cases of motorcycle theft, rape,

and armed robbery were caught taking a coffee break this week

immediately after robbing a mobile phone shop. The foursome held two

employees at gunpoint and took an unsubstantiated number of phones and

cash before escaping.

But they didn't get too far. The owner was about to fill out a police

report when he noticed the thieves' car at a nearby drink stall. The

owner contacted the police, and they arrested the four without any

problems. Fleeing the scene did not make it high on the priority list

for this foursome.
