I heard on the news this morning that a portion of the Toontown area in Disneyland was closed after an explosion occurred in a trash can. According to my local news station Disney cast members blocked off the area while police and bomb squads investigated the trash car. It seems like there was some dry ice in a bag or a bottle that caused the explosion. No one was hurt and the area re-opened some time later that day.

Ill try to link to a story in I can find one.

EDIT:

Found a story on the explosion.

Yeah some kids put dry ice in a water bottle and closed it tight, then left it in a trash can. The ice melts and the gass expands eventually causing the bottle to explode. Harmless unless it happens right in someone's face or causes shrapnel. A cherry bomb is more dangerous. Given that it's LA I'm surprised pranks like this aren't more common.
Be sure you're not looking in a mirror before you start pointing fingers.

They caught the guy. Turns out an employee placed it there, purposely of course. He's on $1 million bail
