Gas station explosion leaves at least 10 dead in Northwest Ireland

The death toll from a gas station explosion that shattered a small village in northwest Ireland rose to 10 on Saturday, and emergency workers who combed through piles of rubble said they did not expect to find more bodies. SIA refers to foreign media.

Irish police said no one remained missing after Friday's explosion in Creeslough, County Donegal. Police are investigating the cause of the blast, and Supt. David Kelly said evidence "is pointing toward a tragic accident."

Ireland's police force, An Garda Siochana, said the mid-afternoon explosion killed four men, three women, two teenagers and a girl of primary school age. Eight people were hospitalized — one in critical condition — after the blast destroyed the Applegreen service station in the community of about 400 people near Ireland's rugged Atlantic coast.
