At least 51 people have died in a Colombia prison Tuesday after a fire broke out following an escape attempt, reports say, according to Fox News.

The blaze in the Tulua prison, which also left 30 injured, unfolded around midnight, according to Caracol Radio.

"We regret the events that occurred in the prison of Tulua, Valle del Cauca," Colombia’s President Ivan Duque Marquez wrote on Twitter, adding that he has ordered federal prison officials "to carry out investigations to clarify this terrible situation.”
