Tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival. Many filial sons and grandchildren took advantage of today (24th) Saturday to go up the mountain to worship the ancestors. Only a little carelessness will cause mountain fires. The Observatory also issued a yellow fire hazard warning today, indicating that the fire risk is quite high. Remind the public to be careful about fire prevention, and picnic people should also be careful to prevent hill fires.
At 3:47 in the afternoon, a hill fire broke out in Sheung Shui near Yi Hou Shan and Fanjin Road in Qinghe Village. The two fire lines were about 30 meters by 40 meters each. Many citizens witnessed the report.
Firemen patted the mountain fire to fight the fire, and the Flying Service helicopter also assisted in the rescue.
The mountain fire had not been put out until 10 o'clock in the evening. The scene was visible, and the mountain top was blazing.
Wildfire
