B.ig fire in Go Vap: 3 mother and c.hild passed away tragically, public opinion was shocked and pitiful
At around 11 p.m. on July 13, people living in alley 497 Thong Nhat, Ward 16, Go Vap District heard a loud explosion. Many people ran to see the house with one ground floor and one floor in the alley on fire, so they shouted and called for help.
The joint family team and local forces mobilized vehicles and dozens of mini fire extinguishers to control the fire. Smoke from the motorbike parking area on the ground floor covered the house, making it impossible to put out the fire to save people. Police determined there were three people trapped.
After a few minutes, the Go Vap District Police Fire Department arrived and put out the fire. The police then discovered and brought out three victims, including an old man about 93 years old, the remaining two were a man and a middle-aged woman.
According to records, the house has an area of about 40m2, one ground floor and one floor is filled with smoke. On the ground floor, many items and motorbikes burned down to their frames, iron doors, and brick walls outside collapsed.
Accordingly, the identities of the three casualties were identified as Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Nh. (93 years old), the owner of the burned house and his two children, Mr. Tran Ngoc C. (52 years old), Mrs. Tran Ngoc Anh Th. (58 years old).
Before discovering the fire, surrounding people heard a loud explosion coming from the small house; At the scene of the fire, it was noted that the iron gate of about 2.5 meters of the house where the fire occurred was warped, the 10cm thick brick wall collapsed, and pieces of glass door were thrown about 15 meters away.
Currently, Go Vap District Police (Ho Chi Minh City) are still blocking the situation, coordinating with relevant professional units to examine the scene and investigate the house fire that tragically left three victims.
Recently, many unexpected fires have occurred continuously, forcing people to increase their vigilance. For example, the Khuong Ha mini apartment fire that left 56 people dead was a terrible disaster and left a lasting impression. But less than a year later, at midnight on May 24, a serious fire broke out on Trung Kinh Street in the middle of the Capital, also a boarding house, and 14 lives were taken. After every incident happens, we learn lessons. The lesson is painful every time, but there are reasons that keep repeating.
Fire and explosion incidents stem from many causes and can happen anytime, anywhere, leaving heartbreaking consequences. The lesson is painful every time, even though it is true that the disaster of thieves is something we cannot predict.
This heartbreaking incident once again raises the need to reconsider the work of propaganda, dissemination, and equipping people with escape and fire prevention skills today.
In the Khuong Ha mini apartment fire, painful and valuable lessons were learned. There are errors that belong to management agencies, authorities, and functional agencies, and there are errors that belong to the building owner.
At the same time, through that incident, it also showed that if fully equipped with skills, many people would have been lucky to escape.
According to expert Tao Ngoc Tung, Hanoi Fire Prevention Training Center - Vinasafe Fire Prevention, people's fire prevention and escape skills today have changed a l.ot compared to previous years. People have also become more interested in fire prevention and f.ighting and have also participated in training conferences on fire prevention and f.ighting.
However, the number of people participating in these programs is still limited, not meeting the expectations of the authorities. According to Mr. Tung, we must strive to have at least one person in each family participate in propaganda conferences on fire prevention and f.ighting.
Until the cause and issues related to the fire on Trung Kinh Street are investigated and announced by the authorities, specific data can be available. But this incident is once again still very painful.
