Three pedestrians were burnt in an electrical transformer explosion in Gazipur’s Sreepur. The incident took place at Maona More in Sreepur around 11pm on Wednesday (March 11).
\nLocals said that a transformer suddenly exploded with a loud noise in front of a building called Shaheed Super View in the Maona More area last night. Three pedestrians were burnt as the fire spread. The fire also spread to a nearby building. A worrying situation was created at that time.
\nUpon receiving the information, two units of the fire service went to the spot and brought the fire under control after half an hour of effort. The three burnt people were rescued and first taken to the local Al Hera Hospital. Later, the doctors working there gave them primary treatment and sent them to the National Burn and Plastic Surgery Institute in Dhaka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
