An explosion in China’s provincial capital of Liaoning, has left three dead and several injured

Authorities say the death toll has risen to three, with at least 30 people injured in the aftermath of an explosion which rocked the provincial capital of Liaoning, northeastern China on Thursday morning.

Investigators from the Shenyang emergency department and gas company are at the scene of the explosion, which shattered windows in multiple buildings and sent debris flying, hitting a number of parked cars.

The local fire department says rescue efforts are ongoing with 25 fire trucks and 110 firefighters deployed to the site as of late Thursday morning.

In June, a gas explosion at a market in central China killed 25 people and injured more than 130.
