Fire at indoor South Korean shooting range kills 10

SEOUL, South Korea -- A fire tore though an indoor shooting range in southern South Korea on Saturday, killing 10 people, including at least two Japanese, and injuring six others, police said.

Some people were on fire as they ran out of the building, the Yonhap news agency quoted a witness as saying.

Nine Japanese tourists were inside the facility in the southern port city of Busan when the fire broke out on the second floor of a five-story building, police official Han Jong-seok said.

An official at the National Emergency Management Agency said authorities were struggling to identify the dead due to their burns.
