Well, you know when it's fall when you start hearing stories about pumpkins.  On Sunday, there was an explosion at the annual "Punkin Chunkin" event in Delaware.  The accident was a result of a pumpkin-firing cannon malfunctioning, causing it to blow up after it launched a pumpkin.  The explosion sent two people to the hospital.  One of the people was hit in the head by a chunk of a pumpkin and is in critical condition.

This event takes place every year and, surprisingly, injuries like this are not a very common occurrence.  Hopefully everyone is ok and ready to come back for next year's events!
