Xining road surface collapse is suspected to have a flash of fire. Where did this fire come from?

At present, the incident is under further investigation, but according to some monitoring videos at the scene, it should be that some natural pipeline gas leaked and caught fire inside the collapse, which made the road collapse catch fire. Now rescuers from all sides have also rushed to the scene and dispatched excavators to dig out the soil and gravel in the collapsed area. So far, six victims have been found, and the incident seems to be further expanding, with the total number of wounded reaching 16.

This incident has aroused widespread concern in society, and the government is also actively sending rescue workers. The number of people rescued this time has reached 1 more than 1,000. According to the public video surveillance, a bus stopped at the station where the accident happened, and suddenly the front of the bus completely collapsed, and the front part completely fell into the big hole formed by the road surface collapse. At this time, the lamppost next to it collapsed quickly because of the collapse at the bottom. It is possible that the electric spark exposed at this time ignited some natural gas coming out of the collapse and caught fire.

However, at present, it is only a guess of this possibility, and the specific reasons will not be clearly understood until the accident investigation report comes out. According to some witnesses, the scene at that time was still very scary, and the passengers on the bus were also very flustered. Several passengers waiting at the bus stop also fell into the collapse. Then a lot of water came out of the collapsed place, so that the front of the bus and the passengers who fell in were directly submerged under the water and could not know the situation.

This adds great difficulty to the rescue. Relevant departments in Xining also sent rescue teams at the first time. At present, the bus trapped in the pit has been hoisted out. Relevant power supply and gas supply departments have also taken measures such as power failure and water cut-off to ensure the smooth implementation of the rescue. I hope this matter can be solved smoothly and the victims can rest in peace.
