Four die and more than 200 affected by Jeppestown fire

JOHANNESBURG - A fire gutted a building in Jeppestown, Johannesburg on Sunday morning killing four people and badly injuring three.

Johannesburg Mayor Dada Morero says it's been determined that a private corporation owns the building, but it still has to be informed about the blaze.

It's believed the building was illegally linked to the power grid, but investigations are continuing.
