According to Aunt Zhi, less than 7 o'clock in the morning that day, Les Plaza shopping mall opened and the escalators in the shopping mall began to operate. But what everyone didn't expect was that the supermarket's rolling door hadn't opened yet.
Citizens who rush to buy still use the escalator to walk towards the "Shangyouyou" supermarket on the ground floor.
The reporter checked and found that there was probably less than 2 square meters of space between the escalator and the rolling shutter door of the supermarket. Seeing more and more people, no one could stand at the door. However, the rolling door did not open in time, and the citizens who came down from the escalator had nowhere to stand. They all fell down in a swarm, squeezed each other, and were stepped on.
According to Mr. Feng, an employee of the merchant on the first floor:
"The elevators in the mall are always open. Before the iron door below can be opened, some old people squeezed down. Maybe they couldn't squeeze, and eventually they fell."
Aunt Zhi said that after she fell, she didn't care at first, but soon felt sore in her waist. After asking the supermarket staff for help, the mall arranged for someone to take her to the hospital half an hour later. The diagnosis and treatment report showed that Aunt Zhi had a fracture on the left transverse process.
Aunt Zhi’s son told reporters,
Many other elderly people were injured at that time
Sent to the emergency room of the hospital.
The reporter learned from the relevant departments of Minhang District:
On September 12, at Les Plaza Mall, No. 916 Wanyuan Road, Gumei Road Street, due to the improper opening sequence of the gates, escalators, and "Shangyouyou" supermarket entrance rolling shutters, customers waiting for the supermarket to open and customers entering the mall were crowded. 8 people were injured (3 people with suspected fractures, 5 people with minor bruises, and 0 people were hospitalized).
At present, the injured have been properly arranged for medical treatment by the mall properties and supermarkets, and the injuries are stable. "Shangyouyou" supermarket has been closed for rectification.
Some netizens said about this:
Aunts and uncles lack safety awareness,
In order to grab the goods more than the loss
Some netizens also said:
There is no safety awareness in the mall,
How can we not do a good job in security when we engage in activities?
What do you think?
