At least 40 people are injured and an unknown number killed after a series of explosions reportedly rocked train stations in Viareggio, Italy. Evacuations have been ordered, according to local media.

Two homes have reportedly been destroyed after a train carrying gasoline exploded. The train supposedly derailed before the explosion.

Even before mainstream media, YouTube user rabindeivaregia published footage from the scene.

2. BBC says gas cylinders in transit...
