HCMC - A 4-story house on Tran Binh Trong Street (Binh Thanh District) caught fire, destroying many properties.

According to local residents, the fire broke out late on January 19 on Tran Binh Trong Street, Ward 5, Binh Thanh District. The house on fire was about 80 square meters wide and had 4 floors.

During the fire, because the door was closed, the neighbors climbed onto the roof to pull the water hose and use mini fire extinguishers to put out the fire, but were unsuccessful. The fire then flared up from the first floor to the third floor and spread to the power lines in front of the house.

The cause of the fire is under investigation by the police.
