Deadly fire in Russian bar started by 'flare gun' kills at least 13

A fire in a bar in the Russian city of Kostroma has killed at least 13 people.

Authorities say it may have begun when a drunk customer at the nightclub fired a flare gun on the dance floor, SIA refers to Russian media.

The fire reportedly spread when parts of the lighting rig on the ceiling ignited, quickly filling the room with smoke. It took several hours for it to be extinguished.

A suspect, said to be a local resident, has been arrested.

It took emergency workers several hours to put out the fire, which began at around 02:00 local time in Kostroma, 300 km northeast of Moscow.
