All of the other people at the factory were able to make it out safely as the fire broke out at the facility in the county’s Puyan Township that specializes in painting bicycle parts.
The fire spread rapidly because the factory was jammed with flammable objects, according to the Changhua County Fire Bureau, and dozens of firefighters and 19 fire engines had to be mobilized to extinguish the flames.
