Trying to settle accounts with the neighbor: Pensioner blows up his own apartment
Ufa (Russia) - A Russian man (66) was seriously injured while trying to blow up his neighbor's apartment.

The residents of the prefabricated building stand in disbelief in front of the demolished building. A few minutes earlier, a powerful detonation had completely destroyed an apartment on the second floor. A severe gas explosion hit the apartment building in the Russian city of Ufa on Saturday morning, KP reported.
A 66-year-old resident suffered severe burns and had to be treated in hospital. A 31-year-old woman was injured in the leg. Fortunately, no other people were injured.
It has now been revealed: It was intentional. The investigators are certain: the 66-year-old had long held a grudge against his neighbor, with whom he lived next door.
In the morning, the pensioner decided to settle up, tampered with the gas pipe and removed a protective cap. But he had probably made a mistake. Instead of the neighbor's apartment, the 66-year-old flooded his own home with plenty of gas - with fatal consequences.
A deflagration occurred. His apartment was completely destroyed by the force of the detonation and subsequently burned out.

An arrest warrant has now been issued for the pensioner. He will probably go straight from hospital to prison. Unpleasant for everyone else in the house: they had to leave their apartments and were housed in a gym. It is still unclear whether the house will have to be demolished.
