Another day, another tragedy it seems. This time, it's a Mexican fireworks market.

An explosion at a fireworks market outside Mexico City has killed at least nine people, police say.
Another 60 were injured as the blast hit the San Pablito fireworks market, about 20 miles (32km) outside the city.
Video from the scene showed smoke billowing from the area and blasts could be heard in the background.
Unconfirmed reports suggest a higher death toll. The Mexico State Red Cross said 25 ambulances had been dispatched.
Locals have been told to avoid the area and keep roads clear.
State governor Eruviel Avila said the top priority was to care for the injured, and officials had been dispatched to the scene.
