facebook.comFire guts Vanguard chicken processing factory in Korat
A fire at a chicken processing factory at Suranaree Industrial Estate sent workers fleeing in panic, with at least six people reported injured, on Thursday.
Fire trucks were called to the Vanguard Foods (Thailand) Co factory on Ratchasima-Chok Chai Road in tambon Nong Bua Sala around 10.25am, said Pol Col Chusak Rattanapan, duty officer at Muang police station.
The blaze began in a chicken grilling room inside the factory. The 20 or more workers in the room fled in panic as flames sprang from a large electric grill and spread quickly through the room. At least six workers received injuries, but the number had yet to be confirmed.
Naruecha Kosasiwilai, chief of Muang district, said about 20 extra fire trucks were called in from nearby areas to help combat the fire, which was quickly gutting the factory.
As of 12.30pm, the fire had yet to be put out, Narenthorn emergency centre reported. Six people were hurt. The factory exports processed chicken to Japan.
Damage had yet to be estimated.

I applied a fix, and it seems to be working again. Some files are missing now, got written over in my repair. We'll have to see, what else can and needs to be recovered or set up anew. Please report any problems.
