Adele Makes Emotional Visit to London’s Grenfell Tower Following Fire That Killed 12
Adele
was spotted at Grenfell Tower in London on Wednesday night to offer her support
to everyone affected by the overnight
fire that killed at least 12 people and injured 74 others.
The Grammy winner, 29, and husband Simon
Konecki were photographed at the scene of the deadly flames that engulfed
the 24-story apartment tower in the affluent Notting Hill neighborhood.
Fire officials received reports of the blaze just before 1 a.m. local time
and flames could be seen more than 10 hours after London Fire Brigade officials
arrived, the Associated
Press reported.

Witnesses reported seeing people jump from the blazing tower and a
woman reportedly tossed her child out of a window on the ninth or 10th
floor to safety. It appeared that the fire was extinguished early
Wednesday but it was ablaze again by 11.15 a.m.
Just before noon local time, officials announced
that 64 people had been taken to six hospitals across the city —
another 10 people went to the hospital on their own. Twenty victims were
in critical care, officials said in the statement.
The cause of the fire has not yet been reported.
