A tragic fire broke out on Yanshou Street in Tucheng on June 13, 2024, claiming three lives. The unique design of the residential building with mezzanines on all floors led to residents being trapped in the chimney effect setup when a lithium battery on the 4th floor caught fire. The intense smoke and flames quickly spread upwards, making escape impossible. Neighbors witnessed the terrifying event and the blackened walls outside the burning building. The smoke and the elevator effect caused by the internal staircases made it extremely challenging for people to survive, with the fire almost spreading to nearby buildings.
