"MADRID, Spain -- A fire said to be the worst in Madrid's history destroyed a skyscraper in the Spanish capital's financial district on Sunday.

"More than 100 firefighters worked to extinguish the blaze in the city's eighth-tallest building, the 32-story Windsor Tower.

" "The fire is not under control," Madrid Mayor Alberto Ruiz Gallardon told reporters. "We are all aware that we are fighting the biggest fire that the city of Madrid has had in its entire history," he said.

" "The fire department is making an extraordinary effort to stop the fire spreading to surrounding buildings," he said."
