No one hurt Made Aug 12, 2018, sent to the company Aug 23, 2018, published by CPSC Sep 7, 2018
The product, in the report: Greenwood Propane Torch, for use with 20 lb liquid propane tank, Item 61589, barcode 792363615891, distributrd by Harbor Freight Tools
The product was being used to kill weeds by burning. Squeezing the trigger makes the flame larger depending on pressure. The handle often will stick at wide open, blowing flame (or blowing out the pilot light and just blowing propane) uncontrollably until propane is turned off at the tank. Releasing the handle won’t help.
