Magharebia

An explosion at a video arcade in Casablanca Wednesday morning (March 11th) killed one person and injured six, MAP reported. An unidentified source at Morocco's Interior Ministry is cited by AP as saying that the blast "appears to be a gas explosion, not a terrorist act". Other witnesses blamed it on a bomb, noting the force of the explosion, AP said. Windows as far as 40 yards from the site on the Boulevard el Joulane were reportedly blown out.
