At least seven people have died and dozens of others are injured after fire engulfed several floors of an eight-story building in Paris, France. French investigators suspect a criminal motive behind a massive fire that saw at least eight people killed and over 30 injured in an eight-story residential building in Paris. One woman was detained in connection with the probe.
A woman has been detained as part of an inquiry into the fire, with Paris prosecutor saying investigators are now looking at a “criminal reason” behind the massive blaze, according to Reuters. 
Meanwhile, firefighters are searching flats to make sure there are no other victims. Emergency teams are also working to ensure the building does not collapse from the fire damage.
