When fire engulfed a karaoke parlor in Binh Duong Province on Tuesday night, customers refused to heed employees' pleas to flee, the local police said.

Colonel Trinh Ngoc Quyen, director of the Binh Duong Police Department, said most rooms at An Phu karaoke parlor were locked from inside, and it took firefighters a while to break down the doors.

Most of the customers were drunk when the fire broke out, he said at a press conference Thursday morning.
