In a tragic incident in North Macedonia, at least 51 people lost their lives, and over 100 sustained injuries in a fire that engulfed the Pulse nightclub in Kocani. The blaze, which erupted in the early hours of Sunday morning, is suspected to have been triggered by malfunctioning pyrotechnic devices during a performance by the hip-hop duo ADN. The club, located approximately 60 miles east of the capital Skopje, was packed with around 1,500 people when the fire broke out, sending flames and smoke billowing into the night sky.

Meanwhile, revisiting Prescott, Arizona, in 1910, a tale of survival and justice unfolds. Dan Fain, a figure in the community, narrowly escaped death after being assaulted in Humboldt. According to the Weekly Journal-Miner, Fain was attacked while conducting business when a dispute broke out between his employees and two intoxicated Austrian immigrants. Despite not being involved in the initial altercation, Fain was slashed across the back with a dirk, leaving him partially paralyzed and in critical condition.

Deputy Sheriff Fred Campbell swiftly responded, capturing one of the assailants after firing warning shots. The assailant was identified by Fain, and both men were incarcerated in Prescott city jail. Despite the severity of his injuries, Dan Fain displayed remarkable resilience, recovering enough to testify at a preliminary hearing just eight days after the assault.

The legal proceedings against the alleged assaulter, identified as Paul (with his last name spelled multiple ways in reports), dragged on for months. Despite a jury recommending leniency after finding him guilty of simple assault, the judge imposed the maximum punishment: a $180 fine or 90 days in jail. The incident, though fading from public memory, serves as a testament to the toughness of individuals like Dan Fain and the pursuit of justice in the early days of Prescott.
