Two people were killed in a fire in a residential building in the district of Innenstadt-Ost in Dortmund. The residents are a man and a woman of "advanced age," said a spokesman for the fire department. The cause of the fire is so far unclear.
Whether more people were in the burning house, is still unclear. Officially, another person was registered in the row house. The fire department, which had been alerted at 8 o'clock, continued its deletion work in the morning. A spreading of the fire on the two neighboring houses could be prevented.
