A lethal fire broke out during a New Year’s Eve celebration at Le Constellation, a ski resort bar, in Crans-Montana, Switzerland, that claimed the lives of 40 individuals and injured hundreds.
Initially, witnesses suspected that the fire was started because of “a birthday candle, which was very close to the ceiling,” one person revealed, adding that the ceiling was set ablaze a couple of minutes later.
However, a new photo from the resort bar has now revealed the exact cause of the fire, confirming initial speculations.
