An old power cord is believed to be the cause of a fire that destroyed a home in Sattahip.
Firefighters needed about 30 minutes to control the Dec. 25 blaze at a house 100 meters from Sukhumvit Road in Moo 3 village.
No one was injured, including four dogs staying inside the house that successfully escaped.
Occupant Noppong Srisai, 64, said no one was inside the rental house when the fire began. An old electrical wire is suspected to have caused a short that sparked the blaze.
Noppong Srisai looks on as his house and all his belongings go up in smoke on Christmas Day.
