Boy, 13, Killed By Toy Rocket In Calabasas Backyard

A 13 year old boy was killed in Van Nuys California when struck in the chest by a small metal cylinder loaded with match heads during an incident while children played with a toy rocket in the Wirts family's backyard. The device, used for inflating life jackets, was fired from a four seat toy gun by William Wirts as the boys launched rockets. The victim ran about 30 feet into a chainlink fence and collapsed. Police described the cylinder as a compressed gas canister and noted the youths were playing rocket launching in the Wirts yard when the accident occurred.
