Revellers celebrating a birthday set off fireworks inside a bar in southern China, triggering a blaze that suffocated 15 people and injured 20. The fire in Changle, a city in the southern province of Fujian, started when 10 people lit the fireworks at their table, the Xinhua News Agency said. The explosion set the ceiling on fire and the entire place was soon engulfed in flames. It took 30 minutes to put them out.
