Remember the roof-blown apartment of Glenelg, which seemed to have been "bowed down" on the roof and caught fire.
Sea View Apartments, which swept through Adelaide more than two months ago, blew down trees, blackout more than 40, 000 households and toppled the roof of an apartment building in Glenelg North. The apartment has been in the process of being renovated since the roof was lifted in November last year.
However, the disaster was not alone. At about 4: 00 a.m. yesterday, a fire broke out in the three-storey apartment building.
Emergency service department received a report rushed to the scene, trying to put out the fire.
One apartment in the apartment building was completely destroyed, and the other five were messed up by smoke and water.
Fortunately, the residents were evacuated in time, and most of them were not hurt by the fire,
Except for a 51-year-old woman squatting closer to the fire,
After inhaling smoke, he was sent to the hospital for treatment.
The fire department estimated the damage caused by the fire to be as high as A $ two hundred thousand.
At present, it is not clear how much damage the fire has caused to other residents.
It is reported that one of the apartments is also rented on a short-term rental website, which costs $129 a night. The advertisement reads "spacious two-bedroom with beautiful beaches" and "Sunsets can be seen from the master bedroom and living room." It is now clearly difficult to achieve this description.
At the same time, residents who have experienced a "deep fire" have also suffered the blow-up of the roof and one of the residents of the fire, Lance, severely denounced the apartment building, which lives next to the worst-burned apartment. My own house has also been hurt to a certain extent. He said, "again! Next door is a mess! "
"the apartment should be punished! You can't live! "
His girlfriend screamed when she found smoke and fire next door, Lance said. Then they took their dog, parrot, and drove to the leave apartment. "We didn't get the goldfish, because the house was full of water," Lance said. "I left in my pajamas and didn't even change my clothes."
Police, firefighters and paramedics had arrived at the time, he said, noting that the fire was actually behind the apartment building and that it was hard to see from North Esplanade. "obviously, the fire took place in the northeast corner of the apartment next door."
He also told the firemen about it.
Lance said his apartment suffered a twofold wind in November and Wednesday's fire.
The problem with the apartment building itself is that a lot of apartments are filled with asbestos fillers,
It has had a certain impact on the fire fighting work of the firefighters, who need to fight the "partially collapsed" roofs and asbestos.
It took 45 minutes to put out the fire.
Residents Surinde's roof was also hit hard during the November storm, and Surinde said in an interview that before the storm, they had complained to apartment managers about cracks in the apartment ceiling. They plan to seek compensation through the South Australian Civil and Administrative court, where accusation officials failed to repair the apartment building in a timely manner.
The investigation into the fire is still under way.
