TopNaija reports that many others sustained varying degree of injuries.
Sources disclosed that the trailer caught fire inside the trailer park on the Azare-Jama’are road, where the driver drove in to effect some repairs on the articulated vehicle in a welder’s workshop on Monday afternoon.
A gas cylinder being used by another welder to work on another vehicle was said to have exploded and spread to where the trailer was being repaired.
TopNaija learnt that the explosion caused pandemonium in the park with people running for their lives as the resultant flame spread, torching people and every other object around.
A source said that the driver of the trailer attempted to drive his vehicle out of the park, but was unfortunately caught by the raging flame and he died in the process.
