Hong Kong high-rise fire kills at least 44
Firefighters were still dousing a devastating fire Thursday which ripped through a Hong Kong high-rise complex, killing at least 44 people and leaving hundreds missing according to authorities.
The inferno - the financial hub's worst in decades - took hold on Wednesday afternoon in an eight-building housing estate with 2,000 apartments and sent shockwaves through the city, which has some of the world's most densely populated and tallest residential blocks.
