Reuters is reporting that a nursing home in Nashville which was 4 stories in height caught ablaze last night killing 7. What makes this even sadder is that there was no sprinkler system in the building.
Investigators are still trying to determine the cause of the fire.

8 now dead and I sad story I also heard (I haven't read Breeze's article yet...it might be in there) that one of the fire chiefs who responded to the scene found his own mother among the victims.
That is so sad.
