A FIRE broke out in a food company warehouse in Shanghai's Minhang District this morning. No casualty was reported except one worker suffered burns in his hands.

Police said the fire occurred at 9:04am in the warehouse of Shanghai Laurel Food Company at 10 Guiguan Road. The 1,500-square-meter warehouse was used to store frozen food.

Firefighters put out the fire by 10:30am. Plumes of black smoke could be seen in the sky and the warehouse covered with painted steel sheets smelt of burnt plastic.
