Thirty people evacuated and one taken to hospital after a fire at a Bukit Batok coffee shop
A fire broke out at a coffee shop at Block 413 Bukit Batok West Avenue 4, damaging three food stalls, CNA reported. About 30 people were evacuated and one person was taken to hospital, CNA and the Straits Times said. DailyDrop has not seen the cause of the fire.
Coffee shop kitchens carry fire risks, and the speed of the evacuation helped keep injuries to one.
Know the exits wherever you eat, and report smoke early.
The cause is not yet known; watch for the Singapore Civil Defence Force's findings.
