A large fire broke out in a residential-commercial building in Nam-gu, Ulsan, at around 11:10 pm, and hundreds of residents were evacuated.
Reporter Kim Sang-min is here.
Reporter Kim, welcome.
The lights seem to be quite big, but what is the current situation?
<Reporter>
First of all, it was around 11:10 am.
It was about 11 minutes last night, and this is a large multi-purpose building.
The first and second floors of the basement are underground parking lots, and from the first to the third floor are shopping malls, and from above to the 33rd floor, there are apartments, and it is believed that a total of 127 households reside. It seems that this has started, but it is said that it occurred on the 12th floor of the building, so the exact firing point has not been specified yet.
The whole building was covered in flames with the strong wind and the lower floors and the upper floors of the building were overlapped, but the second stage of the response, such as mobilizing a nearby fire station, is now in place.
At one time, a fire spread to the roof of a nearby mart, but it seems that the lights at the mart are turned off now, and the fire at the mart seems to be a little smaller than before, but it seems that the flame has not been completely caught. There is.
<Anchor> If
you look at the screen now, the whole building is covered in flames.
It seems that the key is whether the residents would have properly evacuated before the fire spread.
<Reporter>
Yes.
Since the fire department is busy with the firefighting work, it is not yet possible to confirm how much human life will be damaged. "Nothing has come in yet." This has been heard, but it is unreasonable for us to deliver accurate news with that much. .
Hundreds of residents are evacuating to the outside of the building now, but the fire department said that they went inside and searched for people, and about 40 people were evacuated on the rooftop.
<Anchor>
How is the rescue work being done now?
I'm worried about how the rooftops should come out.
<Reporter>
First of all, it is fortunate that the flames have subsided a little more than before, but the fire department is responding in the end anyway.
There are a lot of people working on it right now, and there are talks about visiting each room.
However, it is said that the wind is very strong and the high-rise ladder is not closed because the wind is very strong and it is not easy to suppress it.
