Teen killed in Waconia propane explosion ID'ed 
CARVER, Minn. (AP) - Friends and family are gathering to remember a Carver teenager killed in a propane explosion last week.
Eighteen-year-old Ryan Samuelson was killed when a propane tank exploded Wednesday at Waconia Farm Supply. Samuelson was an employee and had just taken a 100-pound propane tank into a filling shed when the explosion happened.
The cause of the explosion is still under investigation.
A memorial service is scheduled Tuesday at West Union Lutheran Church in Carver.
Samuelson would have been a senior at Waconia High School this fall.
