Tourist Killed By Volcano On Stromboli
A French tourist, Francis Rene Meunier, 20, was killed near Stromboli Volcano after approaching the crater. A mountain guide and his dog recovered the charred body, with skull fracture blamed on a 40 pound rock ejected from the crater. Meunier and four amateur vulcanologists climbed without guides five days earlier and split up to watch explosions.
