PALEMBANG - A massive fire broke out in a densely populated residential area on Jalan Nias, Kelurahan 26 Ilir DI, Ilir Barat Subdistrict, Palembang, South Sumatra, Monday, June 13.
Based on observations, the fire was seen soaring about two meters into the air, this morning at around 09.10 WIB to horrendous local residents.
At least five units of fire engines (damkar) were mobilized and assisted by residents to extinguish the fire in a two-story semi-permanent house. Pos Merdeka firefighters had difficulty carrying out their duties because the road was narrow and other buildings blocked them from reaching the burning house.
The two-story house that was burned down was later discovered to belong to a clothing trader at 16 Ilir Market who also stored textile raw materials in the form of cloth.
Until some time around 10.15 WIB the fire began to be tamed from the two-story house, so the fire did not spread to other houses that were side by side.
The head of the Ilir Barat 1 Palembang Police, Kompol Roy Tambunan, said that the house that was on fire was inhabited by one family.
His party did not know for sure the source and cause of the fire because the fire was still being extinguished and a joint evacuation process was carried out by local residents.
Police personnel who were deployed in the field managed to evacuate an elderly person who uses a wheelchair before the fire spread while ensuring that there were no fatalities in the fire.
"There were no casualties," he said.
