In the early morning of October 2022, a ** sound suddenly came from the kitchen of room 102 of a certain community A, and then someone called for help. Tenants Xiang and others, who lived in other rooms of the house, woke up from their sleep to find Ji and his wife, Xu, blocked behind the kitchen door and calling for help. Everyone immediately smashed the door to rescue them, but as soon as they smashed open a gap, flames burst out of the crack in the door. Due to the size of the fire, everyone could only temporarily give up the rescue 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 size of the fire. In the end, Ji and his wife died due to inhaling high-temperature smoke, and Xiang was injured in the accident.
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 results of the investigation 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 two have a total of 3 battery cars. Ji also purchased a 60V battery with a nominal voltage higher than the 48V of the battery car, and modified the battery car to improve the battery life. For convenience, he often takes the battery home to charge it instead of charging it at a safe charging place. Other tenants had been aware of Ji's dangerous behavior for a long time, but they had not effectively stopped 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.
The accident has raised concerns about the safety of food delivery riders and battery carts. For the sake of convenience and time saving, many delivery riders often take the battery car home to charge, which has great safety risks. At the same time, some tenants and others may also turn a blind eye to risky behavior, which requires attention and vigilance.
In order to ensure public safety and prevent the occurrence of similar accidents, relevant agencies and departments should strengthen safety education and publicity for food delivery riders and other personnel, and improve their safety awareness and behavioral norms. At the same time, more stringent regulations and management measures need to be formulated for the use and charging of battery cars to ensure that battery cars are charged in a safe charging place to avoid similar accidents from happening again.
In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to the safety of housing rental and living environment. Homeowners and renters should ensure that their homes meet safety standards and regulations and provide a safe living environment. It is also necessary to investigate and rectify the existing safety hazards in time to avoid the recurrence of similar accidents.
In conclusion, this accident is a reminder of the safety of food delivery riders and battery carts, as well as the safety of the living environment. It is necessary for all parties to work together to strengthen management, education and publicity, improve public safety awareness and behavioral norms, and ensure public safety and social stability.
