Fire damaged three shops at The Avenue galleria, causing
more than 500,000 baht in damage.
Firefighters took about 20 minutes to extinguish the 3
a.m. Dec. 12 fire that gutted Pizza Corner, Cream & Fudge and Coffee World
shops.
Surveying the damage, Pizza Corner manager Saowanee
Srichokchai said damage likely would cost more than 500,000 to repair.
Flames destroyed the stores’ computer systems, an ice cream freezer and
interior decorations.
A security guard said he called authorities after seeing
large amounts of smoke pouring out of one of the shops and then heard two
explosions that caused flames to spread quickly.
Fire investigators are working on the assumption faulty
wiring was at fault for the blaze, but are still investigating.
