Nightclub fire kills 15
At least 15 people died and 35 were injured when a fire ignited by fireworks swept through a crowded Quito nightclub on Saturday, officials said.
Rescue workers continued to search for bodies after the fire, among the worst in a decade in the hilly capital, where restaurants and clubs often lack proper emergency exits.
