A fire broke out at around 12 noon today (September 17) at a level 4 house on Tran Binh Street, Mai Dich Ward, Cau Giay District (Hanoi).
According to initial information, the burnt house has an area of about 200 square meters, located deep in the alley. As soon as the fire and smoke were discovered coming from the house, the local people and the local fire fighting force used 2 mobile mini fire trucks and fire fighting equipment at the public fire fighting point to control the fire.
Upon receiving the information, Mai Dich Ward People's Committee mobilized regular militia and ward police to blockade the scene and assist in fire fighting.
According to the Command Information Center, Hanoi City Police mobilized 5 fire trucks from Cau Giay and Bac Tu Liem District Police and the Fire Fighting and Rescue Team of Region 2 - Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Department to the scene.
Because the house is located deep in the alley, the fire brigade had to drag the hose nearly 300m to reach the fire.
By around 1:30 p.m., the fire was basically completely under control. Fortunately, there were no casualties. Property damage is being assessed.
