Moviegoers jump off ledge to escape fire


Feeling the heat: Moviegoers standing on the ledge of One-Kapitol Plaza in Sandakan as they attempt to escape the fire.

SANDAKAN: Moviegoers smashed through windowpanes and windows and some even tried to jump off the ledge when one of the cinema halls of a cineplex here caught fire.

At least eight people were seen jumping off the ledge of the One-Kapitol Plaza building after a fire broke out at about 3.55pm yesterday, with thick smoke billowing out of the complex at Hsiang Garden.
