Notre-Dame Cathedral went up in flames on Monday in a roaring blaze that devastated the Parisian landmark, a searing loss for the city and for France.
ELECTRICAL SHORT-CIRCUIT
Since Tuesday, Paris prosecutors have been investigating what could have turned the Gothic masterpiece into an inferno. At least 40 employees at the Paris landmark have been questioned so far.
According the early reports of prosecutors, an electrical short-circuit caused the fire that ripped through Notre Dame Cathedral.
