One person was taken to hospital with burn injuries after a stall in Marsiling Lane Food Centre caught fire on Thursday morning. Videos and photos of the incident circulating online show the inside of a hawker stall engulfed in flames while a man tries to put out the blaze...
He said he grabbed the fire extinguisher from his shop and ran over. “The fire was quite big, so I shouted for more extinguishers, which a few guys passed to me,” said the 57-year-old.
A water jet was used to extinguish the fire, which involved a kitchen exhaust duct system in the hawker centre, said the SCDF. Preliminary investigations showed that the fire started from the stove area in one of the affected stalls, said the SCDF. PHOTO: LIANHE ZAOBAO
