A summer storm, gusty winds and hail damaged more than 60 residential units and a flea market and brought down five power poles in Prachantakham district of Prachin Buri on Tuesday afternoon.

More than 50 vending stalls at the flea market in tambon Dong Bang were damaged when the storm pounded the district at around 2.30pm. The storm also caused a metal structure to fall on a stall selling fried bananas, striking a 60-year old vendor. She sustained leg injuries and was rushed to Prachantakham Hospital, said her husband Or Sangvornkit, 73.
