A sudden fire in Mumbai's Goregaon area has left a 23-year-old man dead and another critically injured. The incident occurred when a refrigerant gas leak sparked flames while it was being refilled into a vehicle. The deceased has been identified as Saddam Hussain, while Sanjog Morya suffered severe burns, officials report.
The fire was triggered by gas escaping from a compressor, which led to the ignition of electric wiring and other vehicle components—a nearby parked bike was also damaged. Emergency crews quickly responded to the scene to extinguish the flames and manage the damage.
Authorities are currently investigating the specifics of the incident, including claims of a compressor explosion. The task at hand is to piece together what led to this tragic accident and to ensure such occurrences are prevented in the future.
