WPR16FA183Accident on September 18, 2016 at Gilbert, AZ: serious injuries, destroyed.

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Cessna 182P · serial 182261251

An inadvertent explosion of pyrotechnics, which were contained in a box that had been installed on the airplane's left main landing gear assembly spring leg which resulted in shrapnel striking the airplane's left wing and breaching the left wing fuel tank, which led to a subsequent fuel leak and fire. Contributing to the accident was the airplane owners' improper decision to install an untested pyrotechnic box and his failure to attain proper authorization to use it during the flight.
