MILAN (AP) – Police in Italy say two people have died in the explosion on a highway near the northern city of Bologna that collapsed part of a raised highway.
Police also said in a statement Monday that between 60 and 70 people were injured, some with serious burns, when a tanker truck carrying explosive materials was in a traffic accident.
The news agency ANSA said the tanker was carrying liquefied petroleum gas. The explosion sent flames soaring into the air.
