fourpeople were arrested on Monday, a day after pyrotechnics inside of a Brazilian night club misfired, burning the building to the ground before the entire crowd of 3,000-plus could escape. 232 people died in the deadly incident, which authorities revealed was partly due to the fact that all but one of the club’s emergency exits were locked when the fire broke out — which led to Monday’s arrests. More than 50 victims were buried on Monday, more than 100 remain in the hospital as a result of smoke inhalation, and the government has declared a three day period of national mourning. source
