A 53-year-old San Francisco man, whose Sunset District home was ripped apart in a horrific explosion, was formally charged Wednesday with manslaughter, manufacturing a controlled substance and other counts related to the fiery blast.
Darron Price, who was taken into custody on Friday, was scheduled to be arraigned on multiple charges in a San Francisco courtroom Wednesday afternoon.
A woman -- confirmed to KPIX by a police source as the suspect's wife -- died in the explosion and her caretaker was badly burned and remains hospitalized. "The butane lighters, if you think about how they operate, they're designed to ignite immediately," said retired FBI agent Jeff Harp."They're very volatile, and so if you're using those types of chemicals in an atmosphere or in an area where you have say a dryer that has an ignition source, you got a recipe for disaster."
