Shanghai fire: Death toll up to 58

A deadly fire in a Shanghai high-rise apartment undergoing energy-saving renovations has spurred safety reviews of similar projects, as Beijing suspended such work in the capital.

Authorities said Friday that 58 were confirmed dead in the blaze, which swept through the 28-story building after sparks from welding equipment set nylon construction netting and bamboo scaffolding alight, as flames spread throughout the building. (AP)
