Fire in a 3-story commercial building at Saraburi Central Market. Merchants and sellers fleeing to escape the chaos. Before the roof frame collapsed causing villagers and Thais to scatter their roofs Late today at around 11:00 a.m., Muang Saraburi Police Station received a report of a fire in a 3-story commercial building, which is a shop selling Buddhist supplies. Inside Sukuman Market, Mueang District, Saraburi, the fire source is on the 3rd floor of the shop because it is a 100 year old building. The ground floor is made of cement. The upper floor had wood material, causing the fire to spread quickly. and spread to the upper floors of two adjoining rooms, which were shops selling pork floss and pork sheets. This caused vendors to help move items to escape the fire. Firefighters brought in more than 10 fire engines, water trucks, and aerial platforms from Saraburi Municipality to spray water. While some officers were preparing to use ladders to go up and spray water, the wooden roof structure on the 3rd floor of the 3 burning buildings suddenly collapsed, causing a large amount of debris to fall down below. In addition, the fire originated on a high place, the entrance was narrow, and the building was closed off with no one there. It took firefighters 45 minutes to bring the fire under control. Mr. Sahapat, 48, a vendor at the fresh market who witnessed the incident, said that the shop where the incident occurred was a religious supply shop. The owner was not there at the time of the fire. He saw smoke coming from the 3rd floor and the fire spreading very quickly, so he quickly told the vendors to move quickly and called the fire department to come and put out the fire. During the incident, Mr. Bancha Chaowarin, Governor of Saraburi Province, traveled to inspect the fire area. Although the fire was already under control, unrelated people were still prohibited from approaching because of fears of danger from the decades-old building that could collapse. Initially, it was only known that no one was in the bu ilding where the fire occurred. We must wait for officials to re-examine what caused it and the extent of the damage Source: Thai News Agency
