Italian train derailment death toll rises to 21 ROME -- The death toll from a train explosion in Tuscany rose to 21 on Friday after a woman and a man died in hospital, Italian officials said. The Civil Protection said about a dozen of the injured remained in serious condition. A train carrying liquefied gas derailed around midnight Monday in the seaside town of Viareggio, setting off a massive explosion that consumed nearby homes. Most of the victims were severely burned and only about half of the dead have been identified. |
