Fire Blaze Claims Life of Lawyer Trapped Behind Home Window Bars
Picture courtesy of Amarin. A house fire claimed the life of a 49-year-old lawyer on the morning of 25 May, after he became trapped behind window security bars while attempting to escape the blaze. Police and emergency services were called to a two-storey home in Bua Thong 4 housing estate, Soi 7, on Ban Kluai–Sai Noi Road, Bang Bua Thong District, at around 08.30. The fire had already engulfed the lower floor and was rapidly spread internally to the upper level, where the victim was found. The deceased, identified as Mr. Chatchai Songsom, was discovered in a harrowing position, hanging head-first from a bedroom balcony window. It appeared he had desperately tried to escape the smoke and flames, but was fatally hindered by tightly fitted steel window bars. Neighbours reported that Mr. Chatchai worked as both a lawyer and an official in the excise department. Firefighters had to proceed with extreme caution while retrieving the body due to thick smoke and debris, which continued to pose dangers at the scene. One other person, a off duty police officer, sustained injuries during a brave rescue attempt. Pol. Sgt. Maj. Uros Sombun of the Central Investigation Bureau spotted the fire and climbed into the house to assist, but suffered smoke inhalation and a laceration to his arm caused by the metal bars. He was promptly transported to Pimonrat Hospital for treatment. Eyewitnesses said the blaze started on the ground floor and spread with alarming speed. Residents in the area said Mr. Chatchai was upstairs when the fire broke out. With all exits barred by metal grilles, he had no viable escape route as the flames and smoke blocked the staircase. Investigators are examining the cause of the fire, with initial suspicions pointing to either an electrical short circuit of a faulty household appliance. Forensic experts have been called in to carry out a thorough investigation, while police continue to collect witness statements and evidence. The incident has sparked discussion around home safety, particularly the risks posed by window security bars that, while deterring intruders, can also fatally trap residents during emergencies.
