fire at a five-story building in downtown Johannesburg Thursday morning left at least 73 people dead and more than 50 injured, city officials announced.
The fire in South Africa's largest city broke out around 1:30 a.m. local time, according to the City of Johannesburg Emergency Management Services. When firefighters arrived at the scene, crews immediately began evacuating those inside the building and working to contain the fire.
As of 8 a.m. local time, the flames were mostly extinguished, but smoke was still trickling out of windows.
Mulaudzi said the building had been overtaken by homeless people looking for a place to live without formal lease agreements, which made it difficult to search, according to The AP.
Hope this brightens everyone's day!
