Most likely yes. There was a police station in Nonthaburi that had a fire about 5 years ago. The officers ran out and let 4 prisoners inside choke to death on the smoke.

Yes. Even though his 'Welcome to KP' BBQ went out of control. However, the drifting smoke preveted oxygen from reaching his fingertips so its back to the horrors of the Police Hospital for him....????

Ah, didn't see that part, perhaps not then unless smoke inhalation gets the better of them.
