A fire broke out on Sunday in a room of a building on Pietrarilor Street in Chisinau, where doors were being produced and restored. A worker suffered mild smoke inhalation and was taken to the hospital for investigation, reports IPN.
According to the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations, the call to the 112 Service was received after smoke was observed on the fifth floor of the building. Firefighter teams were dispatched to the scene according to the increased level of intervention. Upon arrival, the rescuers determined that the fire had already been localized by the people in the building, so the increased level of intervention was not confirmed.
Firefighters found that the flames had engulfed the contents of a room covering approximately 18 square meters. During the intervention, a workshop employee, who tried to extinguish the fire on his own, inhaled smoke and suffered mild intoxication from combustion products.
Specialists are set to determine the cause of the fire outbreak and the circumstances under which it occurred.
