“Blast at Karaoke Bar Kills 25 in China”
Thursday July 5, 2007 6:31 AM
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “BEIJING (AP) - A blast in a karaoke parlor in northeast China killed 25 people and injured 33, state media reported Thursday.
Xinhua News Agency did not give a cause for the Wednesday night blast in Tianshifu township in Liaoning province.
China has suffered a string of blasts, fires and accidents in shopping malls, cinemas and other public places despite repeated government promises to improve safety. Many are blamed on lax safety procedures and negligence.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Last December, China executed two men found guilty of causing explosions at two Internet cafes in central China that killed two people.
The two had been found guilty in connection with blasts in May 2006 at two cafes in Hefei, the capital of Anhui province. Xinhua gave no motive for the attacks.”
