INVESTIGATIONS into a fire which tore through a Swiss Alpine resort bar leaving dozens dead and around 100 more injured are set to continue today.
-
The incident occurred at around 1.30am local time on Thursday in Le Constellation bar in Crans-Montana, 25 miles north of the Matterhorn.
Police said they could not yet be more precise about fatalities as investigations continue at the scene and attempts are made to identify the victims and inform their families.
Local officials said yesterday the cause of the fire was not yet known.
Two women told French broadcaster BFMTV that they were inside when they saw a man carrying a woman on his shoulders. The woman was holding a lit candle in a bottle that set fire to the wooden ceiling. The flames quickly spread and collapsed the ceiling, they told the broadcaster.
