当地官员表示，周五多米尼加共和国一家豪华海滨度假村发生大规模火灾，造成1人死亡、多人受伤。
据官员透露，火灾于上午11点左右在拉阿尔塔格拉西亚省巴亚伊贝镇的四星级度假村Viva Wyndham Dominicus Beach爆发。巴亚伊贝是这座岛屿东南部海岸深受美国及国际游客欢迎的旅游目的地。
在周五晚间的新闻发布会上，多米尼加共和国应急行动中心负责人胡安·曼努埃尔·门德斯表示，火灾现场有1人死亡，另有至少9人受伤。
门德斯称，其中3名伤者被送往当地医院，6人在现场接受了治疗。
周五早些时候，相邻拉罗马纳省的一名应急官员告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，遇难者是一名意大利女性。

手机视频显示，这家海滨度假村的茅草屋顶建筑被快速蔓延的大火吞噬。视频画面中，人群在距离火势仅数英尺的海水中游泳，浓烟和火焰冲上天空。
拉罗马纳省的消防员赶赴现场，当地消防人员奋力控制火势。
应急行动中心在一份声明中表示，度假村内约1690名客人已被疏散至其他酒店及附近住宿设施。该中心还指出，温德姆旗下附近的另一处度假村多米尼库斯宫未受火灾波及，正常运营。
应急行动中心表示，初步调查发现，火势之所以迅速蔓延，是因为度假村部分屋顶采用了更易燃的甘蔗材料，加上大风天气加剧了火势扩散。
该机构称，火灾原因仍在调查中。
温德姆旗下Viva度假村的一名发言人在给哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的声明中表示：“目前我们正在积极收集此次事件的相关事实，并与相关主管部门及现场团队协调。调查仍在进行中，我们暂时不会发表评论。”

1 killed in large fire at luxury resort in Dominican Republic

One person was killed and several others were hurt when a massive fire broke out at a luxury beach resort in the Dominican Republic on Friday, local officials said.
The fire broke out at around 11 a.m. at Viva Wyndham Dominicus Beach, a four-star resort in the town of Bayahibe in the La Altagracia province, according to officials. Bayahibe is a popular destination for American and international tourists on the southeastern coast of the island.
In a news conference Friday evening, Juan Manuel Mendez, head of the Dominican Republic’s Emergency Operations Center, said one person died at the scene of the fire and at least nine others were injured.
Mendez said three of the injured patients were transported to area hospitals, and six were treated on scene.
Earlier Friday, an emergency official for the adjacent La Romana province told CBS News the person killed was an Italian woman.

Cellphone videos captured thatch-roof structures engulfed in fast-spreading flames across the beachside resort. Video showed crowds swimming in the ocean just feet from the blaze, as smoke and flames billowed into the air.
Firefighters from La Romana responded as local crews struggled to contain the blaze.
The Emergency Operations Center said in a statement that the approximately 1,690 guests staying at the resort were evacuated to other hotels and nearby housing facilities. It also noted that Viva Wyndham’s other nearby resort, the Dominicus Palace, was not damaged by the fire and was operating as normal.
The Emergency Operations Center said a preliminary investigation found that the blaze likely spread quickly because a portion of the resort’s roof was made of cane, which is a more combustible material. Windy conditions also contributed to the spread.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, the agency said.
“At this time, we are actively gathering the facts regarding the incident and coordinating with the appropriate authorities and on-site teams,” a spokesperson for Viva Resorts by Wyndham told CBS News in a statement. “As this process is ongoing, we will not be providing comment at this time.”
