Ten people were taken to hospital, nine of them, in life-threatening condition. Ben Obis Jexe is the local member of Parliament. He went to the scene to talk to victims and first responders.

In China, it's getting harder and harder for university graduates to find work. The youth unemployment rate is almost 20%. So, some are going to fake offices and pretending they're already working to better their chances. Yan Broomey explains.

Fake it till you make it. Videos on Chinese social media show office spaces where unemployed, graduates can pretend to work. In one of them, a graduate describes coming to the office just to have fun. But companies offering this service that we spoke to say Chinese authorities instructed them not to speak publicly about youth unemployment. It's a sign Beijing is waking up to the potential political fallout of an undeniable graduate jobs crisis. In August, youth unemployment soared 1090% as over 12 million graduates entered the job market for the first time, the largest ever cohort.

Academic Roy Ing says that universities and students are partly to blame, as both are too focused on traditional academia. Employers, they want real-life problem-solving skills. The graduate jobs downturn is part of a wider economic slowdown in China, which could have a knock-on effect on the rest of the world. Yang comes in Brimby for CBC News, Batesing. And World Series Game 7 is now only 11th. The Jays and the Dodgers deadlocked 4-4.
