Thai authorities on Monday were investigating an after-hours fire that roared through Bangkok's Chatuchak weekend market, destroying scores of small shops crammed inside one of Asia's most popular bazaars.

The Thai capital's fire emergency service said the blaze started after 9 p.m. Sunday and affected more than 100 stalls spread across about 1,000 square meters . No injuries were reported.

"The fire was just too big. People were evacuating their shops," said eyewitness Younes Parvin, a university student who shot cellphone video of the blaze from about 20 metres away. "It was quite terrifying."
