A hi-rise residential skyscraper in Dubai nicknamed “The Torch” lived up to its name.

A massive fire engulfed several floors of The Marina Torch, a 79-floor building in the Dubai Marina district, around 3 a.m. local time on Saturday.

The fire broke out near the top of the 1,100 foot-tall structure dubbed “The Torch.”

The building was evacuated and no injuries have been reported, according to NBC News.

The Marina Torch first opened in May 2011. It is the fifth tallest residential building in the world.
