According to initial information, at around 8:15 p.m. the same day, a fire suddenly broke out at a paint workshop of about 500 square meters on Road 30, Tan Binh Hamlet, Binh Minh Commune, Trang Bom District. Because the inside contained many flammable chemicals and solvents, the fire quickly spread, creating a high column of smoke and emitting many loud explosions.

Upon receiving the news, the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Department of Dong Nai Province mobilized 10 specialized vehicles and dozens of officers and soldiers to the scene to put out the fire.

At the same time, deploy many approaches from different directions to isolate the fire, preventing it from spreading to the surrounding area. Because the factory contains many flammable chemicals, fire fighting is difficult.

After about 2 hours, the fire was basically under control, but authorities continued to spray water to cool it down to prevent the fire from re-igniting.
