Homemade Devices Are Da Bomb

Homemade Devices Are Da Bomb To Kids

"It started as many teenage trends do. One boy told a friend about a cheap, easy way to make a soda bottle explode by filling it with a simple combination of household products, including Drano, and shaking it."

This kind of stuff is fun to do in the middle of the woods. I did it, my friends did it. Whatever. No big deal when there's no one around. However:

"That same day, in Astoria, a Drano bomb was tossed into a Dunkin' Donuts, startling customers and workers. No one was injured, 'but we were scared,' said employee Alia Zafar, 22. 'Some students ran in and threw the bottle. It went all over the floor and the walls,' she added. 'It was very loud and there was a bad smell.'"

That's my street. Great.
