STOMPer Yati witnessed a fire engulfing an apartment at Blk 252 Bukit Panjang.
Said the STOMPer:
"As of this moment, it is still burning. The flat burning is on the ninth floor and the situation looks very bad.
"Not sure if anyone is in the house.
"Firemen are trying to break into house."
Meanwhile, STOMPer Tevin who lives opposite the block said:
"The fire started about 10 minutes ago, around 4.30pm."
The smoke could also been seen from afar by STOMPer Elaine:
"I spotted black smoke coming out from a HDB flat at about 4.30pm.
"God is so kind to drop rain to assist the fire-fighters."
STOMPer Chor Yong Sow also sent in pictures of the fire.
STOMP contacted the SCDF and a spokesperson said:
"Eleven vehicles were deployed to the scene, and no one was injured.
"We are still investigating the incident." -
Imagine, if the fire is on the new 40 storey HDB flat.

you dont need to use ladders all the time. there are hose reel's and access points at every floor for a reason.
