Seven people died and another was seriously injured in a building fire in a wealthy Paris neighbourhood on Monday night, the fire service said.

The blaze in the French capital's trendy 16th arrondissement also left 27 people - including three firefighters - with minor injuries.

'The toll could still increase because the fire is still in progress on the 7th and 8th floors' of the eight-storey block, a fire service spokesman told a reporter at the scene.
