Off-Duty Firefighter Extinguishes Field Fire with Vehicle Fire Extinguisher
Gwangju Gwangsan Fire Station announced on the 30th that firefighter Seong Seohwi, who works at the Cheomdan 119 Safety Center, witnessed a fire occurring in a field on his day off and quickly extinguished the initial fire, preventing significant damage.
On the 28th, while returning from a local festival, Firefighter Seong witnessed a fire in a field in front of Angae Village on Gosan-ro, Godal-myeon, Gokseong-gun, Jeollanam-do, around 6 p.m.
Considering the wind strength at the time and the terrain surrounded by mountains nearby, he judged that if left unattended, the fire could spread into a forest fire. He immediately reported it to 119 and rushed in his own vehicle to use two vehicle fire extinguishers he had stored to quickly suppress the fire.
