Updated: 2013-10-19-03:03
KOLKATA: Residents of a five-storied building in Phears Lane, Bowbazar, had a narrow escape after a fire broke out in a meter box on Friday night. A local girl was the first to spot the flames on the ground floor at 10.15pm. She alerted the residents who tried to fight the fire on their own but failed. A panic-stricken evacuation followed even as the fire brigade was informed. It took three fire tenders half an hour to douse the flames. The building has shops and residential apartments
