Unable to escape!

Nattanit Pikulkaew was at the nightclub to celebrate her brother's birthday. She was near the front of the stage at the time when a woman ran in shouting that roof was on fire. 

The fire started spreading over the club with no time. The audience tried to get off the club and flee the entrance as the club got jammed. Some people are trying to break the glass, but they are so thick, and it's hard to break. The Brother of Nattanit was severely injured, and he is in critical condition also; inside the building, one of his friends died.

Local musician!

 On Monday evening, at the nightclub Raphon Namtham, a local musician regularly performs. Two months ago, the venue was opened and got popular with live performances. The performances took place from 12 a.m to 1 a.m., where customers drank and danced full of joy. 

The local musician was not at the nightclub as the fire broke in the front door only at the entry and exit point. Musicians enter only from the backdoor as the door is kept closed while performing. The ceiling of the nightclub was lined with acoustic panels that were highly inflammable.
