According to Beijing fire news
It was more than 1 a.m. on October 6
A community in Beijing
A resident, Uncle Bai's house, caught fire
A family of 4 was trapped
After receiving the alarm, the fire department immediately arrived at the scene to carry out firefighting
And rescue the trapped people
Fortunately, the personnel were fine
After about four or five minutes, the fire was extinguished
After the fire, the corridor was filled with the smell of burning, and Uncle Bai's house was even more in a mess, the living room furniture was destroyed after the fire, and the walls and ceiling were blackened by smoke.
Uncle Bai introduced that there were his wife, daughter and granddaughter at home that night. "At one o'clock in the morning, I heard my granddaughter shouting that it was on fire!"
It is reported that at that time, Uncle Bai's granddaughter had not fallen asleep while playing with her mobile phone, and the power at home suddenly failed, only to realize that it was on fire, but the living room was full of smoke and could not escape, she had no choice but to return to her bedroom, and quickly dialed 119 to call the police, and shouted "on fire" to her family.
Later, it was preliminarily determined that the fire was caused by the thermal runaway of the lithium battery that Uncle Bai put on the seat in the living room, which then ignited the surrounding sofas and other combustibles.
After fire investigation, it was found that Uncle Bai originally had an electric tricycle, and in 2023, he bought a new 48V lithium battery online for backup, and last year, when his electric tricycle was eliminated, Uncle Bai left the newly bought battery.
"This battery has been sitting in my living room and has not been charged for a long time." Uncle Bai said, "It's not in the way when you put it at home, but I didn't expect it to catch fire." ”
In fact, the fire in Uncle Bai's house could have been avoided.
"The neighbors around are scared, and people keep reporting it. We went to the door to persuade seven or eight times, but the old man said that it was impossible for anyone's house to catch fire, and his house was not willing to dispose of the battery. The senior manager of the community property company said, "I didn't expect it to be true, if it wasn't for the firefighters to save it in time, the consequences would be unimaginable." ”
Before the incident, the staff of the community property company, the community neighborhood committee and the sub-district office came to the door many times to prompt and persuade Uncle Bai not to take the battery home, but the old man still went his own way and ignored it.
It is reported that the responsibility for the fire accident is under investigation.
The lesson of this accident is painful
The family would have had multiple opportunities
It can be kept away from the infestation of fire
But again and again it was a fluke
Let the 4 people still experience the terrible fire escape
Ah Xiao reminded again
For your safety and the safety of others
Electric vehicles and batteries are not allowed to enter the building
Do not purchase substandard battery products
No illegal modifications to the battery
Waste lithium batteries must be
Scrap it in time and dispose of it properly
Do not store at home
Eliminating fire starts with you and me
