AP reports: The death toll rose to 16 after an eruption of Indonesia's Mount Sinabung volcano on the western island of Sumatra on Saturday, government officials said.
The 8,530-foot-high volcano erupted just a day after authorities allowed thousands of villagers who had been evacuated to return to its slopes. Rescuers found 15 bodies, and a 24-year-old college student died of burns in a hospital on Sunday.
Among the dead were a local TV journalist and four high-school students and their teacher who were visiting to see the eruptions up close, said National Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho.
The volcano has been erupting for four months, spewing ash miles into the air. Tens of thousands of residents have been evacuated from the area, but 14,000 living outside a three-mile danger zone were allowed to return on Friday

The dying wish of an Ohio motorcycle aficionado that he be buried astride his beloved Harley-Davidson was fulfilled by his family -- although it wasn't easy.
Billy Standley's body was prepped by five embalmers with a metal back brace and straps, The Dayton Daily News reported. He was affixed on top of his bike – a 1967 Electra Glide cruiser-- which was then placed inside a Plexiglas casket. For five years, the box stayed in Standley's garage, one of his sons told the newspaper.
Standley also had to buy additional burial plots that could accommodate the casket.
His family told the paper he had planned the funeral for years.
Standley died of lung cancer Sunday at the age of 82
