[**Yangjiang City People** Yangjiang News].

At about 8 o'clock in the evening on December 9, a fire broke out in a high-rise residential building in Qinghuafang Community, Luodong Avenue in the city, and 7 fire trucks rushed to the scene and extinguished the fire half an hour later. The fire is suspected to have been caused by an electrical fault in the bedroom, and no **staff member has been made**.

*The residence is located on the 17th floor of a building in Tsinghuafang Community, and is a three-bedroom and one-living room structure. At 8:36 p.m. on the 9th, after receiving the alarm, the city's 119 fire command center dispatched 7 fire trucks from Yangdong and Jiangcheng to the rescue. The property staff of the community rushed to the residential building to evacuate the owner after discovering the fire, and the property staff failed to open the door to extinguish the fire because no one was at home in the ** residence.

After the firefighters arrived at the scene, they immediately wore air breathing apparatus and carried water cannons to the 17th floor through the stairs, and used the fire hydrant on the 17th floor to connect to the fire water. After firefighters worked hard to extinguish the fire, the fire was extinguished at 9:06 p.m. that night. At 9:55, the fire scene was disposed of, and the fire trucks left one after another.

According to the police firefighters, the house is mainly a bedroom, and a sofa in the living room was burned after the high temperature spread. The walls of the rest of the room, toilets, kitchen, etc., were blackened with smoke. The fascia gun in the bedroom was charging at the time of the fire, and it is initially suspected that it was caused by a fascia gun or other electrical fault. The exact cause of the fire is still pending investigation by the fire department.

The city fire department reminds that in the event of a high-rise fire, you must not take an ordinary elevator, and you should use a smoke-proof staircase to block smoke and evacuate as soon as possible. During the escape process, make sure the stair fire door is closed.
