KHÁNH AN |

Hanoi - The homeowner turned on the heater for the dog, but the heater poured down onto the floor and caught fire on the knee, cuffing up a fire on the 2nd floor of the house on Doi Can Street.

At around 2:00 p.m. on March 11, a fire broke out at a house in lane 343 Doi Can (Lieu Giai ward, Ba Dinh district, Hanoi).

After receiving the report, the Hanoi City Police Command Information Center mobilized officers and soldiers of the Fire Prevention, Fire Fighting and Rescue Police Team (PCCC and CNCH) in charge of Ba Dinh District to the scene.

At the scene, the fire broke out on the 2nd floor (2-storey house with 1 attic); the fire fighting commander directed officers and soldiers to focus on rescuing people, and quickly coordinated with the ward police force and people to organize fire fighting and prevent the fire from spreading to surrounding areas.

At around 2:45 p.m., the fire was completely extinguished. Initial information, due to the owner turning on the dog's heater, the heater was poured onto the floor and caught fire on the knees and mattresses, leading to a fire in the dog storage area.

The materials are required to be at least 50cm away from electrical bulbs, sockets, bridge blades, light bulbs and electrical consumption equipment... or there must be a solution to prevent electrical fires from power outages that can cause fires.
