Some 70 people were evacuated from a Housing and Development Board (HDB) block in Punggol on Tuesday (Nov 10) night after a fire broke out in the kitchen of a flat.
The incident happened at about 10.10pm in a 15th-floor residential unit at Block 105A Edgefield Plains.
Videos posted on social media show at least three Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) fire engines, two police fast response cars, and a light fire attack vehicle along the driveway near the affected block.
In one video, an unknown object, possibly from the window panel, was seen falling from the flat and onto the ground floor area which was cordoned off.
Meanwhile, residents are seen gathered outside the police cordon.
SCDF told AsiaOne that the fire involved contents of the affected unit’s kitchen, adding that the fire was put out using a water jet.
