TEHRAN, Apr 16 - The fire that ravaged parts of the Notre Dame cathedral's roof was probably caused by accident, said French prosecutors on Tuesday after firefighters finished extinguished a gigantic blaze that broke out at the iconic structure in Paris on Monday evening.

TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - More than 400 firemen worked to control the immense fire that consumed the roof and collapsed the spire of the eight-centuries old cathedral.

"The entire fire is out. We've now entered the expertise phase," said Gabriel Plus, the spokesman for the Paris fire brigade, adding that the "violent fire" had "spread very quickly over the entire roof" on "about 1,000 square metres".
