A fire started in a market in Rayong’s Muang district on Sunday night, damaging 30 shops, but there were no reports of injuries.
Firemen spent about 20 minutes fighting the blaze before being able to extinguish it. Initial investigation, estimating damages at Bt5 million, showed the fire may have been caused by a short in a generator.
Sak Boonyarit, 55, a security guard, said he was patrolling the market around 9.30pm when he saw flames from the generator before they spread to the shops nearby. The fire damaged about 30 of 180 shops in the market.
