Fire kills 15 during rock show in Ecuador

QUITO - At least 15 people were killed and 45 injured Saturday when a fire erupted during a rock concert inside a nightclub in Ecuador’s capital Quito, a Red Cross spokeswoman told AFP.
The fire was apparently set off by a pyrotechnics show gone wrong during the concert attended by about 100 people, said Red Cross spokeswoman Cristina Medina. “We have counted 15 dead,” she said.
Cesar Enriquez, a firefighter, said another 45 people suffered burns.
