In the afternoon of March 6, in Yaroslavl, in the Lenta shopping center of the Dzerzhinsky district, smoke arose in the supermarket area. Witnesses said a fire alarm went off in the store, everyone was asked to leave.
But it was not possible to evacuate quickly. Along the checkouts, the employees lower the blinds so that those who leave do not indulge in petty looting. And it was not possible to get out through the emergency exits – they were locked. As a result, people who tried to leave the mall through the side exits lined up, becoming increasingly nervous. photo from the page “Heard in Yaroslavl” VK
Fortunately, the anxiety turned out to be insignificant. In the mall, something has just burned on the kitchen stove. But in the event of a real threat, such flaws in the security system could cost the lives of the inhabitants.
