Fire at Staircase - Block 767

We were just commenting recently on cluttered stairways and through a resident, who gave us links on SCDF website on the guidelines, another case of mischief occurred again, this time on the 12th storey.

From what was observed, mischief was intentionally done as fire was started with combustible material brought in externally and it affected clothes on a laundry rack, probably left on the staircase landing to dry.  The fire caused a corridor lamp to explode, thus causing the whole block corridor to be tripped and in darkness.  It was very harrowing for those near the fire as they could neither see the surrounding nor able to help extinguish the fire  ! Many people were alerted when fire engines and firemen were seen climbing up the block to locate the source.

Possible source where the fire started

Our RC would like to encourage all residents to really not clutter the corridors as we are not sure the vandals will ever strike again.  Please keep a lookout on suspicious and irrelevant people along your corridors, playing with fire - which is more likely will lead to more damages if their mischief is not kept in check.

Let's be considerate keep Zone 9 estate a safe haven for all our residents !
