24 injured in explosion on Taiwan train

At least 24 people were injured in an explosion on a train in Taiwan's capital. Taiwan's premier Lin Chuan told reporters that It seemed somebody did this with a malicious intent and the government will fully investigate this case. The government set up an emergency taskforce to investigate the cause and a police probe is underway, his office also said in a statement.

Eyewitnesses say they had seen a man carry a black rectangle-shaped object onto the train. Police were reviewing surveillance footage to try and identify the man, but also said that they had not received any threats prior to the incident.
