More than 200 employees and customers of Daxing Store in Huatang Shopping Mall were evacuated due to a fire in the cable of the high-voltage distribution room on the first floor underground and smoke billowing. It took nearly three hours to finish smoking.

Yesterday afternoon 1, a fire broke out in the power distribution room on the first floor of Huatang Shopping Mall, which is located next to Na 'er Crystal City Community, Kangzhuang Road, Daxing District, and smoke billowed for a time, causing the whole shopping mall to lose power.

"The power went out on the fourth floor of the whole mall. The security guard reminded everyone to evacuate quickly and took a flashlight to help us lead the way. " Customer Mr. Li told the reporter, "When I left the mall, I saw smoke coming out of the basement entrance, which was heavy and choking."

According to the store property personnel, the fire control distribution room is 10 meter away from the basement entrance. After the smoke alarm system in the power distribution room alerted the police, they immediately rushed to the scene to evacuate customers and employees, and more than 200 people were evacuated.

10 minutes later, firefighters and electric emergency repair personnel rushed to the scene. The rescue team borrowed the firemen's fire oxygen mask, entered the distribution room with the firemen, and assisted the firemen to smoke with the smoke extractor. According to witness Li, it took nearly three hours to clean up the smoke in the basement. There were no casualties in the accident.

This morning, Mr. Yang, the relevant person in charge of the Outreach Department of Huatang Shopping Mall, said that at present, the cause of the accident is still under investigation. Since last night, a notice has been posted at the entrance of the mall, telling customers that the date of suspension and resumption of business is still uncertain.
