“Nikolai Gecevsky, our MP for Prievoz and at the same time the head of volunteer firefighters, is one of the best and rarest people I know. But seeing him between midnight and six in the morning usually means that something bad happened. Twice as if it’s Sunday, “ started on the social network Martin Chren. And he wasn’t wrong. In the apartment building on Ružová dolina 9, there were explosions and fires in the apartment on the seventh floor. There were even up to two explosions.

As Chren explained, there was no gas in the apartment, so the primary possible cause was ruled out, and the cause of the tragic event remains a mystery for the time being. However, during the search of the apartment, firefighters also found human remains. “Unfortunately, on the spot, firefighters identified the remains of one person, probably a 59-year-old inhabitant of the apartment, Mrs. R. H… Sincere condolences to the survivors, ” Chren clarified. According to him, a gas explosion is always a serious matter, not only for a given apartment, but for the entire apartment building. As he added, the opinion of a structural engineer will be necessary, whether the explosion did not damage the statics of the house in any way.
According to Chren, however, firefighters observed the perimeter walls in the apartment in question, the risers were also destroyed and there is about five centimeters of water on the ground, which is slowly flowing down. “The whole entrance will probably be without electricity for a few days, the apartments under the explosion will probably also be without water and heating. I hate it when a phone wakes up from the crisis center at five in the morning, but the truth is that while they call the mayor, other teams of people have long been busy and putting their lives on behalf of the rest of us. They deserve our admiration for that and thanks, “ concluded Chren.
The Topky.sk portal managed to connect with the mayor of Ružinov. According to him, the inhabitants of the given apartment entrance were evacuated and at present a statics is awaited. He should arrive in the morning. “I managed to literally get one out of bed. The statics were also obtained by the Management Company of the given apartment building, but it could not come until the evening. at the time of the explosion, no one was in the apartments above and below, ie on the sixth and eighth floors, no one, ” said Chren.

“According to a preliminary estimate, firefighters who checked the apartments from the first to the fifth floor should not be a problem in these apartments, the question is how it will be in the apartments on the sixth, seventh and eighth floors. fortunately no one was, “ Chren explained that no injuries other than one victim had been reported. However, he notes that after the decision of the structural engineer, most of the inhabitants of the flats will be able to return, but they will have to reckon with the fact that they will not have electricity, water or heating there. There are also police officers guarding the entrance.

According to Chren, all the inhabitants of the flats in the apartment building were allowed to take their personal belongings, if necessary they can also provide them with alternative accommodation, but so far this was not necessary. “However, the gas was not there, so far it is not known what caused the explosions. I checked it three times. Now the damage will be quantified, the causes of the explosion will be investigated and then the damage will be repaired. Fortunately, nothing more serious but one victim happened. “ concluded.
