Terrible this week in Mong Kok Fa Yuen Street a fire at night killing 9 people. The police says it is suspicious - most probably arson. It seems that some of the stalls had been put on fire and because of the very small distance from the stalls to the houses (more than 50 years old) the fire quickly spread into some houses.
Here a short clip, but in Cantonese. And further below a video about this Fa Yuen Street.
Fa Yuen Street (traditional Chinese: 花園街) is a street between Boundary Street and Dundas Street in Mong Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong. With over fifty stores selling sport shoes, the street is famous for selling sport gears and is known as Sport Shoes Street or Sneaker Street (波鞋街).
