Hong Kong Ladies' Market: Deadly Fire

A fire at the Ladies' Market in Hong Kong's Mongkok District has killed nine people and left at least 30 more injured.

Fire crews are continuing to battle the fire -- with at least 12 fire trucks on the scene, according to the CNN crew on the ground.

The Ladies' Market was formed in 1975. Now it runs down Tung Choi Street from Argyle to Dundas. This is the second market fire in two years: in 2010, a fire destroyed dozens of stalls and injured several people.
