A WOMAN who switched a gas stove on to heat a curry at her house in Pathum Thani province got badly injured when it suddenly exploded, INN News reported today (Nov. 22).
Pol. Capt. Chakphak Inthasalee, an investigator at Lat Lum Kaeo police station, and rescuers rushed to the house where the blast occurred and found the owner, Kittiya Phoolsilp, 46, injured on both arms through the force of the explosion with the skin burnt and peeled.
