Fourteen miners were killed Tuesday in a coal and gas blast at a mine in southwest China, leaving two people still trapped underground, authorities said. The accident in the early hours of Tuesday is the latest in a series of mining incidents in China, where safety regulations are often poorly enforced.

Two people were still trapped underground after the blast at Guanglong coal mine in Anlong county, Guizhou province, said the Southwest Guizhou Autonomous Prefecture government.
