(Society)The roof of the Agricultural and Marine Products Center has been “shocked” by heavy snowfall. When is the restoration job?

(Anchor)
One person was injured when the roof fell off a market building in Anyang, Gyeonggi Province, as heavy moisture poured down for two consecutive days.

I’ll see if the restoration is progressing.

I’m in contact with the reporter. Reporter Lim Yejin!

(Reporter)
Yes, it is the wholesale market for agricultural and maritime products in Anyang, Gyeonggi Province.

(Anchor)
It’s been a day since the accident. What is the situation?

(Reporter)
Access control lines are surrounded, making it difficult to enter.
As you can see behind it
the roof of the building where the snow is still lying has fallen down.

The ceiling collapsed so quickly that the center section almost touched the floor.

If you look at the internal situation seen through the doorway, the steel frame is also in disarray here and there.

The fruits and vegetables that have not been removed are also left in the building and there are vehicles parked next to the fallen roof rubble.

The outside walls are also dented here and there.

Unable to enter the building, you see traders hastily unloading items on the road or in the underground parking garage.

Around noon yesterday, the sandwich panel ceiling collapsed in Cheonggwa-dong, a wholesale agricultural and fishing market in Anyang, Gyeonggi-do.

Police and firefighters believe heavy snow fell for the second day in a row and collapsed without being able to support the weight.

For the past day, there have been signs of collapse, such as the sound of a bursting iron pipe.

As a result, merchants were evacuated in advance and the market was suspended.

Then suddenly a flame exploded and one of the building’s ceilings collapsed.

The scene of the people staying indoors and rushing to evacuate shows the urgent situation at that time. One customer who was evacuating

was struck by a fall and injured his head and knee.

(Anchor)
I think there will be an immediate disruption to business, so when will the restoration take place?

(Reporter)
The trade delegation, including the merchant president, and Anyang City held a meeting from 8:00 this morning.
The
building itself has collapsed, so the restoration will take a long time.

The trade association and Anyang-si plan to first conduct a safety diagnosis and then determine the direction of work.

According to the traders’ association, there are about 400 shops in the fruit and vegetable market here,
As the livelihood of
traders is an immediate problem, the compensation problem is also expected to arise.

Until now, I am YTN Lim Ye-jin at Anyang agricultural and maritime products wholesale market in Gyeonggi Province.
