BAGALORE, India, April 17 (UPI) -- An explosion outside a cricket stadium in Bangalore, India, injured at least eight before the start of the Indian Premier League match, police say.
At least one report said there were several bombs.
The BBC said the match went ahead after a security search of the grounds, with about 40,000 spectators in Chinnaswamy Stadium watching the Mumbai Indians beat the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Police commissioner Shankar Bidari told a news conference the bomb was a "low-intensity" explosive, the BBC reported. "It appears some sort of explosive material was hidden in the wall, some distance away from the stands."
The Press Trust of India said two bombs exploded outside the stadium minutes before the match was to begin, injuring 15 and creating panic.
A third bomb was found and defused, the PTI said.
Neither report gave details of suspects.
