5.1 Fire Process of Home Inn in Tonghua, Jilin Province

The fire broke out in an L-shaped building with 7 floors. It is understood that the first floor of the building is COCO Bar, the first and second floors are a food city and a KTV named "NO．1", and the third floor is Home Inn.

Master Song, a witness at the scene, recalled, "The fire broke out less than 4 o'clock at night. I heard a bang, and at first I thought the car had hit the wall. But soon I heard several women shouting' Fire-fighting' downstairs. I shouted' Call 119' to those women! Just this kung fu fire truck has arrived. "

Jiang Zhenyu, an escapee, said, "I woke up when I heard a particularly loud noise and someone shouting in the corridor. The first time I found smoke in the room, I realized that it might be on fire, and then I put on my clothes. At this time, I saw that a fire truck had come to fight the fire on the first floor. "

At this moment, someone below shouted that the fire had gone out, but there was smoke, so we could escape from the west stairs. Jiang Zhenyu opened the door and ran out of the stairs.

"But I didn't feel right after I opened the door. The smoke in the corridor was very heavy and the smell was very pungent. Although the wet towel covered my nose and mouth, it was particularly choking, so I immediately returned to my room. After closing the door, I blocked all the gaps in the door with wet towels and bath towels, and continued to call for help at the window. At this time, I saw the fire brigade's lift truck, the ladder truck, rising, but they failed to save me at the first time. Instead, they chose to save the guests on the sixth and seventh floors. Perhaps the smoke above was bigger than below. They saved the guests on the sixth and seventh floors in the first time. "

Jiang Zhenyu said that it only takes about half an hour from being woken up to running downstairs safely. When he came out, he found that his hand was broken when he hit the window, and the ambulance gave him a simple treatment. At this time, he saw that the injured were constantly being carried down and taken to the hospital one after another.

According to the People's Hospital of Tonghua City, Jilin Province, most of the victims of the fire at Home Inn in Tonghua City died of suffocation. "We sucked a lot of black charcoal ash from the respiratory tract of a critically ill child who was being rescued." Qiao Shuping, vice president of Tonghua People's Hospital, said: Since the early hours of the morning, the hospital has treated more than 4 wounded people. "Almost none of these wounded people have burns and scalds. The main symptoms are dizziness, nausea and sore throat. Including the victims, although the body was smoked black, there were no traces of burns, mainly suffocation. "

Tonghua Fire Brigade introduced that the fire area of Home Inn was not large, and most of the victims were guests on the seventh and fifth floors.

A minor injured person who was being treated said that after she heard someone shouting "fire" and rushed out of the room, she didn't find an open flame, but felt a lot of smoke, and then she quickly lost consciousness. After waking up, she was already in the hospital.
