AKARTA: A firefighter from the Fire and Rescue Agency fell through a roof while attempting to put out a blaze in Senen, Central Jakarta, on Saturday.
Firefighter Audi Pratama, 32, was extinguishing a burning roof when it collapsed under him, making him fall 3 meters to the ground.
"Audi climbed onto the roof of a house that was made out of asbestos. The roof was not strong enough and caused Audi to fall through it,” Central Jakarta Fire and Rescue Agency official Achmad Syaiful Kaffi told kompas.com on Saturday.
Kaffi added that Audi was currently conscious but would only need minor medical treatment for his legs.
He is currently being treated at the Gatot Subroto Army Hospital in Central Jakarta. (mai)
