On Dec. 3, 2016, at least 36 people die in a warehouse fire in Oakland, California. The warehouse is known as "Ghost Ship" and is notorious for housing illegal residents in cramped quarters on the first floor and is a concert venue on the second floor. On Dec. 3, there was a concert that brought over 100 people to the warehouse, packing it way over capacity. The authorities say the cause of the fire is unknown, but some speculation is that it was an electrical fire, but a criminal investigation has been opened. Police are asking family members of possible victims to supply DNA samples as they move slowly through the building to find bodies.
I find this very tragic, because majority of these people were probably naming out to some good music. this made me think if building collapses that kill people. it think the fire had something to do with the mass crowd, however i don't know for sure.

It saddens me to hear this, and I hope the families are aware of all who died.
