was there a big fire in japan recently?

[seeyanwng]

Hi All... i want to ask if there was a big fire that broke out in japan just this week that consumed an entire market, destroying dozens of shops and homes. i was informed by someone that this is big story in japan but i searched all around the net and couldnt find any info on big fire in japan recently, as recent as yesterday or 2 days ago. couldnt be sure of the location since it wasn't specified, but it could be fukuoka, kitakyushu, street address: kamitomino.

so was there a fire or not? thank you!

i also posted this in another forum. my apology if that is inappropriate, i just need some definite answer asap.

Not that I've seen on the news, but I'm not a big news hound.

You triple-posted. Not cool.

This must be what you are talking about.

Nothing major. No one even got hurt. It was LOCAL news, not national.
