Dance Hall Fire Kills At Least 60 Teens In Sweden

A fast moving blaze at a Macedonian Association dance hall in Goteborg killed 60 people and injured 162, many youths aged 13 to 18. The building had two exits, one blocked by fire, and investigators consider possible arson as the cause. Many victims were immigrants or children of immigrants, with rescuers facing a chaotic scene and some jumping from windows. Many injured were in intensive care, and some were airlifted to burn clinics in other cities. Goteborg authorities said the blaze likely began with an explosion.
