An inquest in Bristol hears that Jo Shaw, 35, died from injuries caused by a deliberate house explosion. Multiple reports state that Shaw suffered penetrating fragmentation blast injuries. The inquest also considers the circumstances surrounding the blast, described as an intentional incident. Authorities and the investigation are reported to focus on Shaw’s former partner, who is believed to have been in possession of an explosive device at the time of the explosion. The reports say Shaw died after the blast, and that events leading up to the explosion included her efforts to save a child before the incident occurred. Overall, the accounts align on the cause of death—blast-related fragmentation injuries—and on the allegation that the former partner had an explosive device. They also describe the explosion as deliberate. Details on the device, the exact timing of the former partner’s alleged actions, and the full sequence of events leading to Shaw’s death are not fully specified in the excerpts provided, but the inquest is presented as examining both the medical cause and the circumstances behind the attack.
