Sounds even worse than fan death.

CALCUTTA, India - A faulty air conditioner exploded Sunday at a McDonald's restaurant in the eastern Indian city of Calcutta, killing one person and seriously injuring three others, police said.
The explosion happened early in the morning before the restaurant opened, killing a passer-by, said city Police Commissioner Prasun Mukherjee.
"Three others were admitted to hospital in serious condition," he said.
Mukherjee said that there was no evidence of sabotage, and that initial investigations indicated that a faulty air conditioner exploded, possibly setting off gas canisters in the kitchen.
The powerful blast ripped the front off the shop and shattered car windows on the busy street outside. |
