It was supposed to be a day of celebration.
On Saturday afternoon, six members of an Iowa family gathered outside a rural Knoxville, Iowa, home for what society has dubbed a "gender reveal" party. Among the six was a pregnant woman. Her family was there to learn the sex of her baby.
But the reveal - which involved a homemade explosive device - went horribly wrong, shooting metal shrapnel toward the family standing 45 feet away.
Pamela Kreimeyer, 56, was struck in the head. She died on impact, officials said.
"The family got together for what they thought was going to be a happy event with no intent for anyone to get hurt," Marion County Sheriff Jason Sandholdt said in a statement. "What ended up happening was that Pamela Kreimeyer, a wife, mother and grandmother was killed by a piece of metal where a metal stand, gunpowder and colored powder were involved."
