Mumbai: At least three industrial units in Pawne MIDC area in neighboring Navi Mumbai were destroyed in a fire that broke out on Friday afternoon, officials said.
There were no reports of anyone getting injured and fire-fighting was still underway, they said.
Fire fighting vehicles of the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) and Navi Mumbai fire brigade were on the spot. The fire started in a rubber factory around 4 pm and spread to an adjoining chemical company and a cold storage unit.
Thick black smoke from the rubber factory enveloped the area which made fire-fighting and rescue operations difficult, officials said.
Personnel from the Turbhe police station have been deployed for crowd control as a large number of onlookers also gathered at the spot, said a police official.
