CHEMICALS stored in an adjacent room were the source of the blast that obliterated an Internet cafe, leaving six dead and 38 injured last night in southwest China, local police said today.
The illegally stored chemicals exploded at 11:05 pm in a room next door to Lianxun Internet Cafe in downtown Kaili City, Guizhou Province.
At least 44 people were in the cafe when the explosion took place, according to a statement from Guizhou's provincial public security department after an initial investigation today.
Police have detained Wu Zhanzhi for illegally possessing the chemicals. The Internet cafe's boss Chen Chenggui and manager Xing Guangchang were also in police custody for questioning, it added.
The rescue work had ended, and the 38 injured, including 9 seriously, were being taken care of in local hospitals. Doctors said all injured were in a stable condition.
The explosion and ensuing fire totally obliterated the cafe. The blast also shattered windows of nearby residential buildings.
The Internet cafe, with 140 computers, has been operating with a license for a number of years, police said.
A further investigation is underway.
