A fire broke out in a restaurant in Kwai Chung in the early hours of the morning. Four domestic cats in the restaurant were tragically burned to death.
At 4 o'clock in the morning, a restaurant named "Golden Pot Shao" on the ground floor of No. 3 Mei Fong Street, Kwai Fong, was reported to have thick smoke, and many residents upstairs made a report on their behalf.
The firefighter arrived at the scene and found that the gate of the shop was locked, and no one in the shop answered the door, so he immediately blasted the gate with a tool and opened the throat to fight the blaze. The fire was soon put out.
However, the firefighters found 4 domestic cats in the store, but all of them were dead. It is not ruled out that they were burned to death by the smoke.
After a preliminary fire investigation, it was suspected that the fire was caused by a short circuit of the induction cooker in the store, which was not suspicious.
CLP personnel arrived at the scene to inspect the relevant electrical appliances.
