Explosion Hits Restaurant In Brazil; 3 Killed

Rio De Janeiro, Oct 13: An explosion likely caused by a gas leak ripped through a restaurant in downtown Rio de Janeiro on Thursday, killing at least three people and injuring 13, officials said.

The explosion around 7:30 a.m. caused heavy damage to the restaurant, which wasn't open, and to the apartments above it, said Ronaldo Alcantara, the second in command of Rio's fire department, who was at the site of the explosion.

"The three fatal victims were flung outside the building," Alcantara said.
