DETONATOR IN COAL
AUCKLAND DAMAGE (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, September 2. An explosion at 14 Seibourne Street, Grey Lynn, last evening, wrecked the sitting room, and blew out a stove in the kitchen. It is believed that the explosion was due to the firing of a detonator in the coal in the grate. The occupier, Stanley John Agnew, and his son, Stanley aged 26, were admitted to the hospital with injuries caused by flying furniture. Three others sustained slight injuries, though one (a visitor) was hurled through a doorway to the far end of another room.
