The names of seven of the nine victims who died in a fire at an assisted living home in Fall River, Massachusetts,​ have been released by the Bristol County District Attorney.

The state Executive Office of Elder Affairs cited the facility for seven deficiencies, four of which were repeat problems.

The Massachusetts assisted-living facility where a fatal fire killed nine people was caring for dozens of aging residents reliant on wheelchairs and oxygen tanks, but it lacked the safety measures and most of the staffing requirements that are commonplace in nursing homes.
