Fire destroyed the Honeymoon Karaoke bar in central Pattaya, causing
a huge traffic jam, but no injuries.
About 30 firefighters took about 30 minutes to extinguish the flames that
burned the Third Road building to the ground. Authorities closed Third Road
and Soi Chalermprakiat 14, causing a huge backup.
The karaoke bar had been closed for renovations and investigators found a
number of empty alcohol bottles near the door. Construction materials were
scattered around the scene, leading authorities to speculate workers had
knocked off to drink and left a tool or other equipment running, causing the
fire.
The blaze remains under investigation.
