When the fire was discovered, people shouted and used buckets and basins to scoop water to put out the fire. However, because the carpentry workshop was over 30 meters long, it was very difficult to put out the fire. Thanks to the large number of people who came to put out the fire, the fire was controlled after 30 minutes.
Upon receiving the news, Fire Police and Rescue Team No. 5 dispatched 2 fire trucks and dozens of officers and soldiers to the scene to spray water to extinguish the remaining fire in the wood workshop.
