Kammalavaandla Palli (Andhra Pradesh), Apr 15 (PTI) At least four people were killed and 18 others were injured in a powerful explosion here in Sri Sathyasai district of Andhra Pradesh on Wednesday, a police official said.

Though the explosion, which demolished at least two houses, was being attributed to a gas cylinder blast, it may not be limited to a gas cylinder, given the intensity of the blast, the official said.

“Until now, four people died, and 18 others were injured, including one in a serious condition,” the official told PTI.

Earlier, Sri Sathyasai district superintendent of police S Satish said the explosion occurred around 12.30 pm.
