Nothing about 'Spontaneous' in the article.Scores of tenants were forced to evacuate from an eight-story building on Surasak Road in Bangkok’s Bangrak district this morning, after a fire broke out in its underground parking lot.
Thick smoke rose through the building and was visible from outside.
The building’s website indicates that the lower floors are used as offices, while higher floors serve as residences.
An initial investigation suggests that the blaze may have been caused by electric vehicles parked in the underground lot.
At press time, firefighters and rescue workers were still working to control the fire, while tenants gathered around the area.
The number of vehicles damaged by the fire is still unknown, as firefighters must fully extinguish the blaze before they can gain access to the affected floors.
You guys!! You just can't deal with it, can you?Nothing about 'Spontaneous' in the article.
Possibly a short circuit, but even then thats not spontaneous.
