A fire broke out approximately at 8h45 this morning at a house located in a narrow alley number 16, Đào Duy Từ Street, Tân Chính Ward, Thanh Khê District, Đà Nẵng.
This is a densely populated neighborhood, close to Cồn Market - right in the heart of Đà Nẵng City. When the fire was discovered, many local residents quickly grabbed a mini fire extinguisher and opened the door to the location of the fire on the second floor of the house to put out the flames.
At the time the fire occurred, the house was storing various electronic equipment and machinery, so the fire quickly spread and descended to the lower floor, prompting people to flee outside. At this point, the fire was intense, producing a thick black smoke column that rose several dozen meters high, accompanied by explosions from the house. Many families living nearby had to evacuate the area.
Upon receiving the fire alert, nearly 100 police officers and firefighters from the Fire Prevention and Fighting Department, along with 6 fire trucks, rushed to the scene and quickly extinguished the flames. Due to the house being located near Cồn Market, in a narrow alley, the fire department had to divide their forces into multiple directions from nearby houses to spray water to put out the fire.
The competent authorities also temporarily blocked a section of the road in front of the Cồn Market area to perform the task of extinguishing the fire.
