Deadly accident at Barton Hall track meet. Few details yet, but probably a shot put or hammer throw.

during between-flight warm-ups for the 35-pound weight throw...
The 35-pound weight implement is a ball with a triangle-shaped handle attached to it; competitors spin 21/2 times and heave the weight into a vector. Most throws in Saturday's competition, which was halted after the incident, traveled between 34 and 45 feet.
