Fire Critic An Unadulterated View of the Fire Service
A fire at a prison near the Chilean capital Santiago has killed 83 inmates and critically injured another 14, according to the government.
Officials say the fire was started deliberately during an early morning fight between prisoners at the San Miguel jail, south of the city.
It took hours to bring the flames under control. The fourth floor of the building was destroyed. Some 200 inmates were moved outside to a prison yard.
