According to some of the rescued hostages, things
went south when some of the tape holding explosives
to the basketball net came loose, and one of the
explosive charges detonated.

Search various threads on Free Republic for more info.

Thanks. Makes sense. Hot, humid, the tape came loose. I can't even imagine the kids there.
