Pattaya Police were called on Tuesday night to investigate a fire at a workers camp in Jomtien.  At the scene, the workers had already doused the flames in the camp containing 50 small rooms, 7 of which had been damaged by the fire.  The cause of the fire was the foreman, Tabsombat, who apparently deliberately started the fire under the influence of alcohol after arguing with his girlfriend, who eventually left him.  He denied the charges so a full investigation is now continuing.
