SUVA, March 16 (Xinhua) -- Three people were killed on Saturday after a fire broke out in a house in Nadi, the third largest city of Fiji, according to Fiji Broadcasting Corporation (FBC).

The Nadi Fire Station responded to a fire call early Saturday morning. When firefighters rushed to the three-bedroom house, it was fully engulfed in flames and firefighters had to force their way into the house through the front and back doors.

The victims are believed to be a 70-year-old woman who is the owner of house, her daughter in her 50s and her de facto husband.
