Hundreds of people gathered last night at Wellington's Cathedral of Saint Paul to remember the five people killed in the Loafers Lodge fire in Newtown. People had to flee for their lives in the May disaster with one man jumping out a window and others being rescued from the burning roof. Almost hundred people were left homeless, and a 48-year-old man has been charged with five counts of murder.
