Mr. Ngoc called for help from everyone to prevent the fire from spreading. Dozens of people in the neighborhood used many means to put out the fire. However, because straw is flammable, the fire burned faster and faster, Mr. Nguyen Van Ngoc and the people could not stop the fire from spreading.

Upon receiving the news, 30 minutes after the fire broke out, the fire truck of Fire Police Department No. 5 arrived promptly to extinguish the fire. At 11:05, after using a combination of water jets, the fire was completely extinguished. All remaining straw in the house was transported out by the people.
The timely extinguishing of the fire prevented the fire from spreading to other houses, because it had just been the harvest season and a lot of agricultural products were being dried.
