It wasn’t the regular groovy Friday night for the people of Bucharest, Capital of Romania. Especially the 400 people that attended the rock concert at Colectiv Club’s.
According
to the Romanian government officials and witnesses. There was a fire
and explosion in a Bucharest nightclub killing 27 people and injured 155
during a rock concert that featured fireworks last night.
Part of the show was to feature pyrotechnic effects and there were fireworks inside the club.
During
the show, the fireworks shot through the club’s ceiling which busted
into flames that caused an explosion and heavy smoke.
“There was a stampede of people running out of the (Colectiv) club,” a man who escaped without shoes told Reuters.
“In five seconds the whole ceiling was all on fire. In the next three, we rushed to a single door,” says another witness.
This
nightclub disaster started by fireworks led to many victims burnt
beyond recognition some intoxicated with smoke and people squashed.

from rescuing forces and ask you to trust they put all efforts to limit
the impact of this catastrophe.”
