▲ The wood chips where the fire broke out
A fire broke out at around 1:17 AM today (July 23) in a pile of wood chips stored at a factory yard in Osikdo-dong, Gunsan, Jeollabuk-do, and was extinguished after about 4 hours and 30 minutes.
No injuries were reported, but 300 tons out of the 1,000 tons of wood chips were burned.
Fire authorities believe the fire was caused by spontaneous combustion within the stacked wood chips and are investigating the exact cause.
