Large fire at car showroom in TP HCM

Smoke and intense flames erupted from an approximately 500 square meter car showroom in Xuan Thoi Son commune, causing panic on the evening of 1/1.

Around 7 p.m., the fire originated from the spare parts warehouse located behind an Isuzu car showroom on Le Quang Dao street, about 4 km from the An Suong intersection.

Upon discovering the blaze, individuals inside quickly evacuated, calling for help, and attempted to extinguish the initial flames with fire extinguishers but were unsuccessful. Within minutes, the fire intensified rapidly, engulfing a section of the workshop.

The affected area was situated behind the maintenance line, near where dozens of cars were on display. Fearing the fire's spread, several employees promptly drove vehicles parked close to the scene to safety.

Ms. Lan, 60 years old, who lives next to the showroom, stated that when the fire broke out, there were numerous loud explosions accompanied by the distinct smell of gasoline and oil. "I saw three people overseeing the store run out amidst thick smoke, then the fire flared up very quickly," she said.

Upon receiving the report, the Fire Police (PCCC) dispatched 6 fire trucks and more than 30 officers and soldiers to the scene. Emergency responders quickly deployed hoses, containing the fire and preventing it from spreading to the displayed automobiles.

By approximately 7:30 p.m., the fire was completely extinguished, but extensive property damage occurred. A representative from the leadership of the Xuan Thoi Son Ward People's Committee (UBND) confirmed that the fire started in the store's spare parts warehouse and waste oil storage area. The incident resulted in no casualties.

Authorities are currently investigating and assessing the cause and extent of the damage.
