Five Chinese university students killed in dormitory fire sparked by electric scooters.

Five university students were killed and 38 others injured by a fire at an apartment block in southern China’s Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region on Sunday.

Guangxi Normal University said all of the dead and 24 of the injured were students at its Lijiang College, and that relatives had arrived at the scene. The report cited fire department sources as saying the blaze started when electric scooters parked near the stairs on the ground floor caught fire. A door on the ground floor that was installed to prevent the theft of the scooters hindered students as they tried to escape, Gan Chao, the owner of a pet shop who witnessed the fire, told Red Star News.
