How to close a http.ServerResponse prematurely?

Say that an error occurs when I'm in the middle of sending a chunked response from my http server that I'm writing in Node.js. There's no way to send an error message to the client at this point, and I figure that this answer is correct on what to do in this situation:

All you can do is close the connection. Either the client does not receive all of the headers, or it does not receive the terminating 0-length chunk at the end of the response. Either way is enough for the client to know that the server encountered an error during sending.

So the question is, how do I do this on my http.ServerResponse object? I can't call end, because then the client will think everything went well, and there is no close method. There is a 'close' event, but I get the feeling that's something I'm supposed to listen for in this context, not emit myself, right?
