When the fire was discovered, many neighbors shouted loudly for the people inside to run outside. Then, they used a mini fire extinguisher standing next door to put out the fire but failed. A few minutes later, the fire flared up fiercely, black smoke billowing throughout the residential area.
Two fire trucks and nearly 20 firefighters arrived at the scene. Firefighters pulled water hoses inside to put out the fire while preventing it from spreading. The fire was brought under control after 10 minutes, causing no casualties, but destroying much of the property on the second floor.
According to police, the cause may have been an electrical short circuit upstairs, as the area has many old items and could easily catch fire.
