Police in central China were investigating explosions at two Internet cafes, the government said Saturday. No deaths or injuries were reported.

The blasts occurred in Hefei, the capital of Anhui province, around 9 p.m. (1300 GMT) Friday, the official Xinhua News Agency said. It did not give further details.

Duty officers who answered the telephone Saturday at the Hefei government office and city's public security bureau would only confirm the explosions. Both said they had no other information and that the cases were under investigation.

The two sites have been cordoned off, according to a news site run by the Anhui Daily, a local newspaper.
