At least one Italian tourist is dead with several more injured after a massive fire in the Dominican Republic resort town Bayahibe on Friday.
The deceased woman, 46-year-old Italian national Francesca Valentino, died at the resort's Viva Wyndham Dominicus Beach Hotel, according to the Dominican Republic's Directorate of Out-of-Hospital Emergency Services (DAEH).
At least nine other people were treated for injuries, with three of those taken to off-site medical facilities, DAEH said in a statement.
Authorities evacuated 1,690 tourists from the popular resort town, The Associated Press reported, citing local authorities.

That’s either arson, or the wind was really blowing to catch that many different structures on fire.
