At two o'clock in the morning on October 2022, a ** sound suddenly came from the kitchen of room 102 in community A, and then a cry for help came from it. Xiang, the "second landlord" who lived in other rooms, and other tenants woke up from their sleep and found that Ji and his wife, Xu, who lived in the kitchen, were blocked behind the door and were calling for help.
Everyone immediately smashed the door to rescue them, but as soon as they smashed open a gap, flames burst out of it. The crowd could only give up the rescue for the time being and run outside, calling 119 to call the police, while trying to rescue through the anti-theft fence that broke the kitchen window, but the rescue failed due to the excessive fire.
Although the Municipal Emergency Linkage Center immediately dispatched 8 fire trucks and 48 firefighters to the scene to extinguish the fire after receiving the alarm, Ji and his wife died due to inhaling high-temperature smoke, and Xiang was injured in the accident.
One detail attracts attention:
Take the battery home and charge it often
After the accident, the Xuhui District People's Procuratorate and the relevant administrative organs jointly convened a case consultation meeting and intervened in advance in accordance with the law. Through the investigation results of the Xuhui District Fire and Rescue Detachment and the testimony of the tenants, the prosecutor gradually restored the cause of the accident.
Ji is a delivery rider and Xu is a live-in nanny, and the couple own a total of 3 battery cars. Ji returnedBuy a 60V battery that is higher than the nominal voltage of 48V for the battery carto modify the battery car to improve the range.
For the convenience of the figure,He also often takes the battery home to charge it instead of charging it at a safe charging location. Xiang, the "second landlord" who lived in the house together, and other tenants had long been aware of Ji's dangerous behavior, but they did not effectively stop it.
On the night of the incident, Mr. and Mrs. Ji put 4 sets of batteries behind the kitchen door to charge them as usual. After the two of them fell asleep, the battery malfunctioned during the charging process, which ignited the surrounding flammable materials and expanded into a disaster. Because the ** point was behind the door, Ji and his wife could not escape from the door, and it was difficult for the tenants outside to rescue, which eventually led to the tragedy. Based on the evidence at the scene and the professional opinions of the relevant administrative organs, it can be determined that the persons directly responsible for the accident are Mr. and Mrs. Ji.
Prosecutors conduct on-site investigations with firefighters.
