Lac-Megantic, Canada: The US rail company at the center of Canada's worst train disaster in recent history on Tuesday blamed firefighters for the deadly derailment, as police indicated they believe it could be a case of criminal negligence.
The death toll from the explosion on Saturday of the runaway train in the middle of the small Quebec town of Lac-Megantic meanwhile rose to 15, with about three dozen others still reported as missing.
"We are very hopeful we will find more bodies," said provincial police Inspector Michel Forget, as investigators combed through the debris of homes and businesses in the town, east of Montreal near the US border.
Forget said negligence -- not a deliberate act of setting the train loose -- could have played a role, but that the criminal probe would proceed along with a Transportation Safety Board (TSB) investigation.
