At least three people are dead and rescuers are looking for missing persons after an explosion in a warehouse at Ercolano near Naples Monday.
    The number of missing is not yet known.
    The warehouse may have contained fireworks, police said.
    It is in an isolated spot on the municipal boundary between Ercolano and San Giorgio a Cremano.
    Ercolano is the site of ancient Roman Herculaneum, buried like Pompeii by the 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius.
    The dead have yet to be identified.
