On October 9 at 12:00 noon local time, a wild fire originating from the surrounding area spread to the The Grand Mauritian Resort & Spa in Turtle Bay, Mauritius. The fire was completely extinguished by the local fire brigade by October 10 at 10:00 am local time. Apart from two associates who were immediately treated in a hospital for minor injuries, none of the hotel guests or other persons at the hotel were injured.
