A YOUNG beauty pageant winner has been accused of throwing makeshift explosives from a car. Kendra McKenzie Gill - recent crowned Miss Riverton, Utah - and three others were arrested on Saturday after allegedly throwing the homemade bombs at least nine times.

Police said they admitted buying plastic bottles, aluminium foil and household chemicals before assembling the devices. "They were throwing them at both property and people,'' Unified Fire Authority Captain Clint Mecham said. "This goes well beyond a teenage prank."
