An old man in Guiyang lit wax for the Buddha in his home and the candle fell to the ground to cause a fire

On November 29, a fire broke out in a house on the hillside of a small area next to Huansha Road, but fortunately, the traffic police, security guards and nearby residents on duty rescued the elderly in the house and controlled the fire, without causing casualties. It has been learned that the main cause was the candles in the house that "offered bodhisattvas."

At about 10:00 a.m. on November 29, Ren Guangjiao, a police officer of the Yunyan District Traffic Management Sub-bureau, was on duty at the intersection of Huansha Road and Luohanying Road, when he suddenly noticed that there was billowing smoke coming out of the residential area behind the bus stop across the road.

"There's a fire, go away, put out the fire!" After discovering the fire, Ren Guangjiao immediately ran across the road, and zhao Yongquan, Luo Xingyuan, Pan Baiguo, and Zeng Xuan, security guards who assisted the traffic police in enforcing the law, also followed them to put out the fire.

Crossing the road and entering the alley behind the bus stop, several people rushed for more than 200 meters and found that the smoke was coming out of a private house on the hillside. Going up to the second floor of the house, I saw a 70-year-old man sitting in the living room, and there was a fire in a hut inside. Several people rushed into the hut to find that the house was thick with smoke, the fire was getting bigger, and an old woman in her 70s was standing in panic. Zhao Yongquan and Luo Xingyuan immediately helped the old man with inconvenient legs and feet out of the house and moved to a safe area. After calling the fire, Ren Guangjiao and two security guards immediately ran to the side of the road to stop the passing bus, and successively borrowed 14 fire extinguishers to extinguish and control the fire at the scene. After nearby security guards and residents discovered that there was a fire, they also took pots and other tools to receive water and participated in the fighting.

After the traffic police, security guards and nearby residents made every effort to put out the fire, the fire was finally controlled. Most of the clothes were burned out in the fire room because of the large amount of clothing stored, but fortunately there were no casualties. After the firefighters arrived at the scene, they further processed the fire scene.

Later, upon inquiry, it turned out that the old man was "offering offerings to the bodhisattva" in the house where the fire broke out, who knew that the candle fell to the ground, ignited the combustible materials in the room, and almost burned the house.

Yunyan traffic police and fire remind that in winter, dry things are dry, we must pay attention to the safety of using fire and electricity. When using a fire, someone should pay attention to the scene to guard against fire accidents.
