The city of Fall River on Thursday released six years' worth of fire inspection reports for the Gabriel House assisted living facility, where a fire earlier this week claimed the lives of 10 residents.

There’s no doubt in my mind that that fire was destined to kill 50-plus people,” Fall River Fire Chief Jeffrey Bacon said Wednesday.

FALL RIVER — The nine residents killed in a fire here at Gabriel House, an assisted living residence, are being remembered as fonts of knowledge and symbols of longevity.

The Bristol District Attorney's Office corrected the report of the 10th victim's death in the Gabriel House fire on Friday, citing a miscommunication.
