Well, it's in a major metropolitan American city.
It is continuing to spread, on a single floor.
Chicago had a high rise fire just over a year ago, major SNAFU with the Fire Dept and poor communications and some 6 or 9 people wound up dying because they were told to stay put..

Are there not water sprinklers in this building? I can't imagine a fire that isn't being fueled by gas or other accelerants continuing to burn as the video shows if the sprinklers are operating. Those things put out A LOT of water.
