MELVINDALE, MICHIGAN (AP) -- A 27-year-old Lincoln Park woman has died after a commercial-grade firework exploded in her face. Melvindale police say Danialle Barse wasn't familiar with the firework she was using last night in the parking lot of the car wash where she worked.
Police say Barse's children and her fiance looked on as the three-inch mortar bomb exploded. A witness tried to help her but he says he was too late.
Some fireworks confiscated at scene were purchased in Ohio, but ATF agents are determining where the commercial-grade fireworks came from.
No one at the car wash had permission to conduct a fireworks display.
