The massive flames spread to the second warehouse.
An initial information showed that a resident living nearby the Tan Tao Industrial Park saw smokes from Sunhouse Company’s warehouse at 7PM.
At that time, residents tried to use water tanks and fire extinguishers to control the fire; however, flames could not be extinguished as expected because the warehouse contained flammable and combustible materials.
After receiving the information, the Ho Chi Minh City Firefighting Police Department and Public Security of Binh Tan District carried out fire localization and quickly mobilized 43 fire trucks and 300 firefighters to the scene.
