巴西官方表示，今天早些時候，南部城市圣瑪麗亞市一家夜總會發生火災，造成200余人死亡，其中大多數為學生。據BBC新聞的加里•達菲報道，現場目擊者表示，當時在舞臺上表演的一名樂隊成員燃放煙花引起了火災。
We are getting very clear as eyewitness accounts from people who were inside that club at the time and what they are saying is that the flames spread extremely quickly. Even so it is not the fire itself which _2_ for the majority of deaths. What the police and the fire services are saying quite emphatically is that people died in the panic to get out. So the question's now you are focusing on whether really the safety
procedures in this club were adequate.The BBC's Gary Duffy in Brazil.
據火災發生時在夜總會內的目擊者提供的信息，我們現在非常清楚地知道，火勢蔓延得非常迅速。但是大多數人死亡的原因不能歸咎于火災本身。警方和消防人員強調稱，人們是因逃跑時的恐慌而死亡。所以現在應該關注的問題是，這家夜總會的安全措施是否得當。這是BBC新聞的加里•達菲從巴西帶來的報道。
