At about 12.25am on July 7, SCDF responded to a fire at Block 314 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3.

The fire involved a Personal Mobility Aid (PMA) scooter in the living room of a unit on the 10th floor.

The fire was extinguished by members of the public using buckets of water through the window and doorway of the unit prior to SCDF’s arrival.
