SHENYANG — A tragic fire in Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning Province in northeastern China, resulted in the deaths of four people and injuries to three others on Friday night. The fire, erupting in a residential building, has drawn significant attention due to its possible link to an electric bicycle.

According to Namibia Press Agency, preliminary findings suggest that the fire may have been sparked by an electric bicycle that was being charged outside the building. It is suspected that the bike ignited the building’s insulation layer, leading to the rapid spread of the flames. Authorities are still investigating the specific details of the accident to determine the exact cause and sequence of events that led to this deadly outcome.

The incident has raised concerns about fire safety and the risks associated with charging electric devices in residential areas. The local community and authorities are awaiting further details as the investigation continues, hoping for answers to prevent such accidents in the future.
