Man barbecues car at party

A man barbecued his car by mistake following a mishap at a party in southern Germany, police have said.

The 37-year-old poured a beaker of petrol on to the smouldering charcoal of his balcony grill to coax it into life, prompting a tongue of flame to shoot out.

A friend standing next to him panicked and dropped the canister containing the petrol, causing it to ignite and spill on to the man's car parked below. The car went up in flames.
