CANTON — At 6:28 p.m. Tuesday, firefighters said, Tammy Rohrig had been sniffing propane in a van in the 200 block of Monroe Street SE. Her husband, Donald Rohrig, went out to look for her, according to Gordon Black of the Fire Prevention Bureau. He went into the van with a lighted cigarette, Black said, causing it to explode.

The windshield was blown over a storage shed into the neighbor’s yard about 40 feet away. The explosion caused a flash fire, which was contained to the van, according to the Fire Department.

Donald Rohrig was taken to Akron Children’s Hospital and was listed in good condition. Tammy Rohrig was taken to Aultman Hospital and was listed in satisfactory condition.

Firefighters were called out to the house once before, in October, for another propane-related situation. Joe Carafeli at the Fire Prevention Bureau said the house was full of a propane smell and had to be ventilated by the Fire Department.
