Crane Collapses As Fire Crews Battle Multiple Blazes - Vancouver

People look at debris after an explosion from a fire on West 41st Avenue in Vancouver, BC, Canada on Tuesday, August 6, 2024. An out-of-control fire destroyed an apartment building under construction in Vancouver’s Dunbar neighbourhood on Tuesday and then spread to several nearby homes, totally engulfing one of them. The blaze was so intense it caused a construction crane to crash down across West 41st Avenue, taking out trolley lines and power lines and leading to power outages south of the road. Thick plumes of smoke and large chunks of burning embers drifted west, east and north across the surrounding blocks. Photo by Ethan Cairns/CP/ABACAPRESS.COM

April 15 Marks 5 Years Since The Fire At Notre-Dame De Paris

File photo - A picture taken on April 16, 2019 shows the altar surrounded by charred debris inside the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris in the aftermath of a fire that devastated the cathedral. French investigators probing the devastating blaze at Notre-Dame Cathedral on April 15, 2019, questioned workers who were renovating the monument on April 16, as hundreds of millions of euros were pledged to restore the historic masterpiece. As firefighters put out the last smouldering embers, a host of French billionaires and companies stepped forward with offers of cash worth around 600 million euros ($680 million) to remake the iconic structure. - On April 15, 2019, a fire broke out in the attic of Notre-Dame de Paris, a medieval Catholic cathedral in Paris, France. By the time the fire was extinguished, this spire had collapsed and most of the roof had been destroyed. 5 years after the fire, the cathedral is scheduled to reopen in December 2024.
