On the morning of June 9, 2024, during breakfast time at the entrance of the Zhongshan Fire Brigade Substation of the Keelung City Fire Department, a terrifying accident occurred when a fire truck, suspected to have failed to properly engage its handbrake, suddenly sped out of the station towards a minced meat shop across the street. Firefighters inside attempted to stop the truck physically but failed, eventually causing the vehicle to hit and bend an electric pole beside the shop before coming to a halt. Detailed financial losses and the exact cause of the incident are still under investigation. Nearby breakfast-goers captured the event and shared it on the 'Daily Life in Keelung' Facebook group, warning others to be cautious when deciding which direction to turn at intersections during breakfast hours.
