A Fire broke out at the Ang Mo Kio Grassroots club this afternoon at about 5:30pm.
SCDF were deployed quickly to the scene and the fire was put out by 6:10pm. Fortunately, no one was injured in the blaze.
It is understood that the fire started from a kitchen located on the third floor at a shark fin restaurant located there.
The black smoke rose high above the club and it could be seen from the Yio Chu Kang MRT platform nearby.
The clubhouse there hosts banquets and meetings and has many facilities especially for members including a gym and a theatrette.
Here are some photos of the fire and smoke from netizens who posted them online:

No BBQ "doggies"???? One thing to note, there seems to be quite a number of kitchen fire these days. Are they loading too much equipment onto the power points? or they are using equipment whose voltage is not the same as the power points? like 15 amp on 13amp for example?? or they are using sub standard electrical contractors.."cut corners"....they are "members" also...so checking is lax...
 
Will the MP be visiting the scene today?
by the way, who is the MP?
 
fire got out of control from burning illegal WC2014 betting slip ?
