BANGKOK — At least 30 families were living in tents Saturday after their homes in an impoverished quarter of Bangkok were destroyed in a blaze.

 

The fire ravaged a 286-household slum next to Wat Saphan Canal in the capital’s Khlong Toei district at about 9:30pm on Friday, police said. The cause and source of the fire are still under investigation.
