An explosion has killed one child and injured six others in the Oleander neighborhood, according to Detective Greg Terry with the Bakersfield Police Department.
Dozens of emergency personnel descended on the 1900 block of Maple Street around 5 p.m. and two children have been removed from a home on stretchers.
Neighbors said children found shotgun shells and placed them in a barbecue pit. They exploded and injured the children.

TV now saying maybe 2 dead. Maybe it was a "device"?
BTW, when I was young, a few of us were hunting/camping. I threw a handful of shot shells in our fire. We hid behind the rocks waiting for them to go off (while freezing too). They did go off, but there was no loud bangs or explosions.
This is a pretty sad story.
