#BreakingNews: Bloemfontein factory up in flames─── TSHEHLA KOTELI 14:36 Wed, 12 Oct 2022
A factory in Piet Human Street, at Hamilton in Bloemfontein, is on fire after a transformer with oil exploded.
VR Med’s Pieter du Plessis says the fire escalated into the factory. At the moment, they only have one patient with serious smoke inhalation. They believe all the people who were inside the factory have escaped with no harm, and some have minor smoke inhalation issues.
However, they are currently helping the fire department team to search if anyone else is missing.
Jaco Kaalsen from VR Med is pleading with the community in the area where the fire has broken out to move away to allow the fire department easy access to put out the fire and in order for nobody to get hurt.
This is a developing story.
