Second fire at Sin el-Fil mall extinguished

 

BEIRUT: Civil Defense team managed to put out a second fire at a popular mall in Sin el-Fil Saturday that saw a toy department store catch fire, security sources told The Daily Star.
 
Response units had earlier in the day extinguished a fire at Le Mall after three generators located outside the complex overheated, the sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Saturday.
 
Hours later a second fire erupted at a toy department store on one of the underground floors.
The management at Le Mall evacuated all staff members as a precautionary measure after the initial fire. 
 
There were no reported injuries following either incident.

This article was corrected on Jan. 28, 2012. The original article stated that the second fire erupted on the third floor of Le Mall. The second fire in fact occurred on one of the underground levels. We regret the error.
