Fire guts four houses in Cilincing

TANGERANG: Fire gutted four houses on Jl. Raya Cilincing, Kali
Baru, North Jakarta on Wednesday morning, but no fatalities nor
injuries were reported.

Mrs. Rudi, who owns one of the houses swamped by the fire,
said that the fire allegedly sparked from a falling candle at
Kumpul's house.

The area in the neighborhood had a blackout on Tuesday evening
so that many residents used candles as lighting.

Those four houses belonged to Mrs. Rudi, Yudi, Triso and
Kumpul.

North Jakarta Fire Brigade deployed four fire trucks to put
out the fire. They managed to extinguish the fire an hour later.
