Never Cook and Drive, Part One

John Ferrell, of Clarksville, Tennessee, was badly burned when a hot grill in the bed of his pickup ignited a propane tank, which exploded. The 1978 Chevy was in flames when rescue crews arrived.

A spokesman for the Montgomery County Sheriff's office explained, "Apparently, when [Ferrell] loaded up the grill he still had hot charcoals, which somehow got too close to the propane tank, and it exploded. Obviously, we would urge people not to drive with burning grills in their vehicles."

Ferrell is reported to be in stable condition.
