SIX people were confirmed dead after a fire broke out in a factory in north China's Hebei Province Sunday afternoon.
The fire ripped through a plastic factory in Huanghua City at about 5:40pm while seven workers were in the factory, the city government said on Monday.
Two of them were killed at the scene, while four others died in the hospital. The seventh worker was receiving medical treatment and his condition was described as serious.
