Yup. Plumber's van parked overnight in his driveway with a leaky acetylene tank. Word has it he hit the remote entry on his key while approaching it to get in and go to work, and unbeknownst to him, it had spent the night filling up with acetylene. Must have been a spark generated by whatever little devices are used to unlock the thing. Not sure if he survived or not; I know sometimes I'll hit mine before I even go out the front door. Let's hope that's what he did. No mention of fatalities with the story I received, anyway.
