Five killed in Hawaii blast

THE death toll from an explosion at a fireworks storage site in Hawaii rose to five after a bomb squad recovered the bodies of two missing men, officials said.

The blast near the Waikele Business Center at a former military bunker where fireworks were warehoused occurred on Friday, killing three people and leaving the two missing.

The bunker burned throughout the day and was too hot and unstable to enter until Saturday, when the bodies of the two missing men were found, Honolulu Fire Department Capt Gary Lum told The Associated Press.
