At least one person died and two were injured in the fire of a warehouse occurred at the outskirts of the Italian capital, local media reported on Friday.


The fire started at around 10:00 p.m. local time (2100 GMT) on Thursday at a household good storehouse in the southeast Torre Spaccata suburb, and quickly spread to at least four adjoining large stores during the night, Rome-based Il Messaggero newspaper said.


Firefighters and rescue teams from three different districts in Rome worked all night to put out the fire, and were able to extinguish it early morning on Friday.


Some five people who had got trapped inside the area were rescued during the night, after taking refuge on the roof of one of the buildings.


At least two Chinese nationals, including the husband of the storehouse's owner, were injured in the blaze and were brought to hospital for medical treatments, according to Ansa news agency.


None of them would be in life-threatening conditions.


However, once the fire was put out on Friday morning, rescue teams recovered one body from the ruins of the first warehouse that was completely destroyed by the fire.


Police were still trying to identify the victim, as Italian scientific police units kept working at the site all day long on Friday, local media said.


The search for other possible missing people continued.


The causes of the fire were still unclear. Yet, firefighters said first findings showed the flames would have first broken out at the second floor of the warehouse, where the keeper's office was located, and easily swept through the building.
