A great fire hit an oil waste warehouse and a residence in the Bencong Kebon area RT 07/01, Kelapa Dua, Tangerang Regency. The head of the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Tangerang Regency, Ujat Sudrajat, said the incident occurred on Wednesday, May 17, at 18.48 WIB. Currently the fire is still in a red situation, and members are being extinguished at the TKP," Ujat said when confirmed, Wednesday, May 17.

Ujat explained the obstacles experienced by his party, namely the narrow road. So that vehicles have difficulty getting to the scene. Access to the TKP is very narrow until only small unit cars (3000L) can get in and out. For now, it is being coordinated for the opening of large unit roads by destroying the barrier walls of residents' houses, the clumps. VOI monitoring at the location of the fire looks high. Firefighters are still trying to extinguish the fire. Many residents are also helping to extinguish the fire. Even at that event, a number of vital objects in the Lippo Karawaci area, Tangerang were extinguished, one of which was at the fuel filling location, namely the temporarily disabled Shell. It appears that at the location, the Shell gas station was closed, turned off and there were no refueling activities. Local security officers, Adi said, the location of the refueling was disabled or temporarily closed to avoid unwanted events. "The worry spreads, so it is closed or disabled to avoid unwanted things," he said.
