Funeral planned for church blast victims in Marion
Plans set for a mass funeral for St. Mary’s Catholic Church worshippers killed as a blast shattered the building in Marion South Dakota.

Parishioners described a sudden blast, with the church’s brick structure left only the tower entrance intact and many worshippers trapped or fleeing amid smoke and debris. Authorities planned services for the elderly victims and urged prayers for the injured as investigators looked into the blast location and cause.
