Locals have told The Liberal that a local man and his young daughter were in the shop at the time of the disaster on Friday in Creeslough, Co Donegal.
The Liberal understands that the man was buying a birthday cake either for his daughter or his wife after school on Friday afternoon, but this has not been confirmed by Gardai at this time.
Horrendously, the timing was right when the explosion happened, which eventually saw 10 people die and 8 people badly injured.
