Firefighters arrived after receiving the report, and used a hose and a team of smoke caps to put out the fire. After more than half an hour, the fire was put out. After investigation, it is believed that a short circuit of an electric comb in the unit caused the fire, and there is nothing suspicious.

The father also injured his hands and feet. Another couple, surnamed Mao (56) and Qian (52), suffered from smoke inhalation and were taken to United Hospital.
