The Men that set up the Fireworks

Tragic Mess



[Police have detained 15 people after
a fire at an nightclub in North Macedonia killed
At least 59 people, officials have said.

The blaze broke out around 02:30 local time
(01:30 GMT) on Sunday at the Pulse club
in Kocani, where about 500 people had gathered
for a concert by DNK,
a popular hip-hop duo in the country.

Only one member of the band survived and was
being treated in hospital,
a spokesman for the public prosecutors office
told the BBC's Newshour.
In total, 155 were injured at the concert.

Interior Minister Pance Toskovski said
the detainees will be questioned,
adding that there are "grounds for suspicion
that there is bribery and corruption"
linked to the fire.]

This is awful. Poor people. :sad:

Reminds of a similar incident that happened in the USA a while back. The backdrop of the stage went up in flames from pyrotechnics during a rock band's gig in a small club venue, many of the concert-goers thought it was just part of the show I suppose and no end lost their lives either from the fire or the crush to get out. Horrific.

…just absolutely terrifying and incredibly tragic…/…so many lives lost of people just enjoying a social event…something they would have been excited to go to…/…awful, awful…

Wrong Venu

Small Club
Double the amount let in.

One Lady lost her sister
she was going for the door,
knocked over,
then they ran over her body

She is the lady with a Bandage on her head
in all news reports
