SUBANG JAYA, Sept 28 — Four people were hurt in an early morning explosion at the Empire Gallery shopping mall here, which was heard from as far away as Bangsar.
Can you all imagine how powerful that explosion!!
Eyewitnesses described a scene of chaos, adding police, ambulances and the fire brigade are still on the scene.
Police tracker dogs are also there as the cops and Fire and Rescue Department personnel from stations across Subang Jaya, Shah Alam, Damansara and Puchong investigate the incident.
According to the department, a distress called was received at 3.45am this morning of an explosion at the mall, located at the entrance of Subang Jaya from the Federal Highway.
Early investigations show that the explosion started from the mall’s front and involved a gas pipeline. A media report states that the explosion occurred inside the Starbucks outlet.
Rescue workers confirmed four were with light injuries from the incident.
Two Nepalese security guards were believed to be initially trapped in the basement, have since been rescued and sent to hospital for medical care for sustaining minor injuries.
Nearly the entire stretch of the front portion of the newly-built mall have been blown out, damaging a number of cafes, restaurants and clothing stores including Tangs and Starbucks Coffee.
The shopping mall opened last year. The cause of the explosion is still unknown, she said.
The police have sealed off the area surrounding the mall, causing a severe traffic jam as workers are caught up in the morning office rush hour.
Wonder, is there any safety officer or supervisor there huh? However, it is already happened. Accident is unplanned or unwanted circumstance. But it doesn't mean that it can't be control. ACCIDENT CAN BE PREVENTED and CONTROL!!
So, everyone has their role to protect themselves and others from any harms.
Work Safe!
