CBS affiliate settles in Rhode Island Fire

The legal ripples from the Great White nightclub fire continue to spread; WPRI-TV and one of their camera team have reportedly reached a settlement with survivors and relatives. The CBS affiliate was being sued over claims their cameraman Brian Butler had blocked escape routes by filming on the night of the fire - a claim they had vigorously denied.

Ironically, Butler was in the club filming a feature on safety in public places when the band's firework display went terribly wrong.

Early reports place the deal at around $30million.
