KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) - Sobbing Ugandan parents sifted through the ashes of a school dormitory Tuesday, searching for their daughters after a fire swept through the building, killing 19 schoolgirls and two adults.
The doors were locked from the outside, trapping some of the girls when the fire broke out as they slept, according to a worker at the Buddo school.
There were 58 girls in the dormitory, but some managed to squeeze through the narrow windows and escape, said teacher Frederick Bugmbe.
