4 dead, 5 injured in explosion at South Korean motel

 

Four people were killed and five others were injured on Saturday in an explosion at a motel in eastern South Korea.

 

The explosion occurred on the second floor of the motel where seven guests were using a gas stove to grill meat, said Kim Dong-woo, an official from the fire department in the coastal city of Donghae.

 

He said four people inside the room were killed and the other three were seriously injured. The explosion also caused minor injuries to two other guests who were in different rooms.

 

Kim said officials were investigating the cause of the explosion. The Ministry of the Interior and Safety said the explosion could have been caused by gas leakage.

 

Officials did not provide the personal details of those who were killed or injured.

Pete Stark, congressman who reshaped health care, dies at 88

 

Former California Rep. Fortney โ€œPeteโ€ Stark Jr., an influential Democrat whose legislative work helped reshape Americaโ€™s health care system, has died. He was 88.

 

Starkโ€™s family said he died Friday at his home in Maryland. They did not disclose a cause of death.

 

During his 40-year career in Congress representing the East Bay, Stark helped craft the Affordable Care Act, the signature policy change of the Obama administration. He also created the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, the 1986 law best known as COBRA, which allows workers to stay on their employerโ€™s health insurance plan after they leave a job as long as they pay the full premium.
