The number of identified victims in the Crans-Montana bar fire has risen by 16, bringing the total death toll to 24. The tragedy occurred during New Year’s celebrations at Le Constellation bar in Crans-Montana. Among the victims is the youngest, a 14-year-old Swiss girl, with nine of those identified being under 18 years old.
The victims come from various nationalities including Swiss, Italian, Romanian, Turkish, and French. On Saturday, eight Swiss citizens were among those identified.
Preliminary investigations suggest that sparklers placed on bottles and carried too close to the ceiling likely caused the fire.
