Fire at Russian Psychiatric Hospital

 A fire broke out early this morning in Moscow, Russia at a psychiatric hospital. Only three people escaped the blaze, two patients and a nurse, leaving 38 dead. It is not clear what started the fire, there are no leads toward criminal activity but criminal investigation has been begun. Investigators worry that patients were given medication to sleep and that could have prevented them from waking and escaping the fire. Russia has ordered a fire safety inspection of all hospitals to be completed by June and will provide assistance to the relatives of those who died with $16,000 and those who survived will receive $4,800.
