It can happen anywhere

I googled "hand grenade san francisco", and this is just one of several articles that came up from 2010......

Calif man gets prison for hand grenade trap
September 09, 2010

2010-09-09 15:21:00 PDT Redding, CA 96001, United States — (09-09) 15:21 PDT Redding, Calif. (AP) --

A man accused of rigging the door of his estranged wife's Shasta County home with a hand grenade has been sent to prison for eight years.

Authorities say Wesley Jones of Concord rigged a grenade to the front door of the couple's French Gulch vacation home so that the person who opened the door would pull out its pin.

Jones' wife told detectives that she heard something drop to the ground when she opened the door in June and saw the string used to rig the trap. The grenade did not detonate.

I wasn't aware that hand grenades were that widely available. Hopefully someone won't come into this thread and throw one of those flash-bangers.
