Steve Chuya, a worker in the factory, told CNN that workers tried to extinguish the fire with water and a fire extinguisher, but were unsuccessful. Firefighters also had difficulty with the black smoke from the material in the factory.
According to CNN, many of the bodies were recovered from the building's second floor, leading officials to believe that workers were trapped there. Al Jazeera reported that it is unclear whether or not the factory had an emergency fire exit.
