Blast in central China leaves 15 dead; 9 injured
AP - 33 minutes ago
BEIJING - An explosion in central China's Henan province killed 15 people and injured nine others Saturday.
The blast occurred around 1 a.m. in Donggancheng village in northeast Henan, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
An initial investigation showed explosives intended for civilian use went off, Xinhua said citing the provincial work safety supervision administration.
The explosives, used for small-scale demolition, were illegally stored at a home when they ignited, destroying more than 10 neighboring houses, Xinhua said. It was unclear what sparked the blast.
Police were searching for the man who owned the explosives, Xinhua said. Rescue operations were under way. No other details were immediately available.
