The family was looking through their grandfather's belongings when they found the handheld explosive device and it went off.

"Someone reportedly pulled the pin on the device and it detonated," Sheriff Oscar Martinez Jr. said in a statement.

Responders found an adult male unresponsive at the scene, and he was later declared dead.

The man's two children — a 14-year-old boy and an 18-year-old woman — were wounded by shrapnel and transported to a nearby hospital.
