Explosion in Pak hotel, four injured: Police

Islamabad: An explosion tore through a small hotel in Pakistan's capital late on Thursday, wounding at least four people, police said.

Islamabad police chief Mohammed Binyamin said an initial investigation indicated the explosion was caused by a gas leak, not by a bomb.

The blast took place on the fourth floor of a hotel on the main commercial street in Islamabad, blowing out windows and throwing chunks of concrete onto cars in the parking lot in front of the building.
