SINGAPORE: A fire broke out at Block 76 Lor Limau on Monday (6 May), resulting in one casualty and two individuals being hospitalized.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) received an alert about the blaze earlier this morning at approximately 2:30 am.
Upon SCDF’s arrival, the fire was observed raging inside a unit on the sixth floor.
Firefighters conducted forcible entry to gain access into the unit.
The fire, which affected the entire unit, was extinguished by firefighters from Central Fire Station and Bishan Fire Station using two water jets.
During the rescue operation, two individuals were found in the utility room in the kitchen area and were rescued by firefighters.
They were then transported to Singapore General Hospital for treatment.
Tragically, another individual was discovered inside one of the bedrooms and was pronounced dead at the scene by an SCDF paramedic.
As a precautionary measure, approximately 200 people from neighboring units were evacuated by the police and SCDF.
Investigations into the cause of the fire are currently underway.

I nvr always fail to read official replies about, regular checks, monitoring, etc when mishaps happen.
In case one forget, when a tree fell and killed someone at the Botanical Gardens, it was mentioned they had check the tree’s health before the innocent lady was killed.
Well, no need to guess.
