HeadlineSep 15, 2017

In London, at least 22 people were left injured—some with serious burns—after a homemade bomb exploded Friday aboard a train at a London Underground subway station. Video shared on social media showed flames pouring from what appears to be a white bucket inside a bag. Most of those injured suffered flash burns; others were hurt when the blast triggered a stampede. The British government says it’s investigating the explosion as a terrorist incident.
