Flash fire at Bangkok bar kills 33, including four band members
A flash fire at the Rong Beer Na Ladprao bar in Bangkok killed at least 33 people, including four of the six core members of the resident band Totsakan, and injured more than 70 others. Early reports from AP said 27 people died and many were trapped in windowless restrooms. The New York Times later raised the death toll to 28, noting blocked exits and the use of flammable sound-proofing material.
Subsequent coverage by NPR and AP reported the death count rising to 30 and more than 70 injuries, prompting a citywide safety review of similar venues. The latest updates from AP and NPR confirmed the toll climbed to at least 33 and identified four of the six core members of Totsakan among the dead.
