Anti-arson fires Trends and Prevention Measures
Last Updated May 15, 2023
Trends
As shown in the list of each ward, recent arson fires have resulted in cases where vehicle covers of cars and motorcycles were lit, and flammable objects around the house were lit, and abandoned bicycles were lit. Most of the cases were lit.
Prevention Measures
Once again, take measures to prevent arson, such as checking and organizing flammable objects around the house.
- Be careful not to place flammable items such as newspapers, magazines, cardboard, etc. around your house.
- Let's put out garbage at a fixed time and place.
- Be sure to lock doors such as gates, entrances, garages, and storerooms.
- Unnecessary items and old materials should be organized and stored in a storeroom.
- When going out or going to bed, be sure to lock the openings such as windows and doors.
・Body sheets of cars and motorcycles are easy to ignite, so use flameproof products (outside site).
・Do not leave combustible materials such as garbage around the vehicle.
