Fire destroys 14 houses in Nabawan, Sabah


NABAWAN: Firefighters travelled almost 90km deep into Sabah’s interior to put out a fire that torched 14 houses in Kampung Tikandis in Nabawan district on Saturday (April 6).

Sabah Fire and Rescue Department operations commander Shellverinus Julius said the team of firefighters did their best to get to the fire after receiving a distress call at 9.16am, but encountered difficulty in accessing the area as road conditions did not allow a fire rescue tender engine to get to the scene.
