Scene of house fire

According to initial information, late at night on November 24 and early morning on November 25, people discovered a fire inside a house on Lien Khu 2-10 Street (Binh Hung Hoa A Ward, Binh Tan District) so they shouted to put out the fire.

People approached to put out the fire but the house was locked from the inside so everyone called the local authorities. Fearing the fire would spread, people living nearby evacuated to the street. People then worked with local forces to break down the door of the house, mobilized fire extinguishers, and pulled water pipes to put out the fire.

The Fire Police and Rescue Force of Binh Tan District Police dispatched vehicles and officers and soldiers to the scene. The fire was then extinguished, successfully preventing it from spreading to surrounding houses.

According to locals, the house was used to store goods (slippers). There was no one inside at the time of the fire.

Many properties inside the house were burned down.

At the scene, many items of furniture and goods inside the 40 square meter house with a ^mezzanine were damaged by fire. Authorities have cordoned off the entrance to the house.

The house fire on Lien Khu 2-10 Street (Binh Tan District) is currently being investigated by the police.
