Authorities have not provided information on any other injuries at this time. The situation is still unfolding, and emergency responders are working diligently to contain the fire and assess the extent of the damage.
In response to the ongoing emergency, police have issued a warning to the public, urging residents to remain indoors. A statement posted on social media emphasized the potential dangers posed by the fire, stating, 'We cannot stress enough the danger that is happening right now.
