COMANCHE, Texas (AP) — One person has been killed and four others injured when fireworks being prepared for a Fourth of July celebration exploded near a Central Texas high school.

Comanche fire Lt. Marcus Nettleton says it’s not immediately clear what triggered the explosion about 9 a.m. Thursday on a baseball field adjacent to Comanche High School. He says most of the pyrotechnics were in a trailer when the incident happened.
