In southern Vietnam, close to Ho Chi Minh City, a massive fire at a karaoke complex resulted in at least 14 fatalities and numerous injuries.
On Tuesday night, a fire broke out on the establishment’s top floor, trapping numerous clients inside of their rooms.
To escape, four people jumped from the second and third floors, local media said. They were injured but survived.
Firefighters reached the scene shortly after alarms went off.
Crews say the blaze took just under an hour to bring under control. Investigators are still determining the cause.
The An Phu karaoke bar, located in the Binh Duong region just north of the city, occupied a significantly sized building with 29 rooms.
It had several decorations and wooden decor, BBC Vietnamese reported.
This is not the first time a fire has broken out at a karaoke bar in Vietnam. Last month, three firefighters died after trying to extinguish a fire at a karaoke venue in the capital Hanoi.
