Mystery explosion in Chinese farmhouse kills eight
| I hate it when that happens... |
An explosion at a farmhouse in central China killed eight people and injured one early Thursday, the official Xinhua News Agency reported. The report said the cause was still under investigation but that police had ruled out a workplace accident, suggesting it might have involved a bomb or illegal fireworks. Bombs are often used in violent attacks motivated by personal feuds or business disputes in China, where most gun ownership is illegal but explosives are readily available for mining and construction.
