Two men arrested over an explosion at a service station in County Donegal which killed 10 people have been released without charge.<\/p>\n

The blast<\/strong><\/a> on the afternoon of 7 October in the village of Creeslough, in northwestern Ireland<\/strong><\/a>, caused the death of four men, three women and three children, with ages ranging from five to 59.<\/p>\n

Police said two men, both in their 50s, were arrested on Friday morning<\/strong><\/a> for alleged offences contrary to the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act 1997.<\/p>\n

A Gardai spokesperson said today: “The two males arrested yesterday have been released without charge.<\/p>\n

“The investigation led by Gardai in Donegal division is ongoing with the intention of submitting a file to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions.”<\/p>\n

The fatal explosion at the building complex came as a shock to the village of 400, where almost every family would have known someone who was either killed or injured in the tragedy.<\/p>\n
