SEOUL, South Korea — Rescue workers were combing through the charred ruins of a factory building near South Korea 's capital to find any more fire victims Tuesday, a day afterMore than 100 people were working at the factory in Hwaseong city, just south of Seoul, when the fire tore through it Monday morning. Security cameras showed smoke engulfing the second-floor worksite of the factory , soon after sparks were detected from a site where lithium batteries were stored, fire officials said.
One factory worker remains out of contact but his mobile phone signal was detected at the building on Monday afternoon. Eight were injured, two of them in serious condition. Most of the dead workers were daily laborers so they were not likely familiar with the building’s internal structure, senior fire officer Jo Seon-ho told reporters Monday. He said the video of the fire site showed they rushed to an area where there was no exit after failing to put out the blaze with fire extinguishers. He said the victims likely inhaled toxic smoke.
