Suspected Arsonist Arrested in Deadly New Zealand Hostel Fire

New Zealand police suspect arson in the deadly fire that engulfed the four-storey Loafers Lodge in Wellington, killing at least six people. The police are treating it as a homicide investigation. A couch fire at the hostel two hours before the fatal fire was not reported to emergency services, and police are investigating if there is any link between the two fires. The building had no fire sprinklers, and the Prime Minister has asked the minister for housing to look at building regulations to see if there is anything more that can be done.
