A medic treated a chicken near the smouldering ruins of one row of shops, according to a Reuters witness. "I'm shock. I feel like crying, but there are no tears," Siamese fighting fish shop owner Suwannee Sangdee, 49, who fears her small establishment has been left in ruins and all her precious fish dead.The Chatuchak market is best-known for its packed shops for fashion, accessories and exotic animals attracting thousands of visitors each weekend.
