Siam Rath reported on a fire at a light factory in Bang Khen, northern Bangkok last night.

Witnesses reported hearing two explosions then saw the factory in Soi Lat Pla Khao 60/2 go up in flames and smoke about 10.30 pm.

Firefighters had trouble controlling the blaze due to plastic fuel for the fire.

They had matters under control in half an hour. A short circuit was suspected.

But several parked cars were involved that perhaps were the explosions heard by witnesses. 

Bang Khen police are investigating.

As of last night there was no report of death or injury in this incident.
