Woman Killed By Cannonball

FOUL PLAY

Struck inside her mobile home in San Diego.

Today in Bizarreville: a 33-year-old woman was struck and killed by a cannonball that blew through her mobile home early Tuesday morning in a rural community outside San Diego, the Los Angeles Times reports. Here’s the kicker: the woman’s husband and another man were working on the cannon nearby when it exploded. Authorities say one of the two men was sent to the hospital with minor injuries. Why they were fumbling around with a cannon remains unclear, though the incident reeks of foul play. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department is currently looking into it.
