Kebakaran hutan di Kanada merebak ke bandar, 7,000 penduduk dipindahkan
17/05/2011
OTTAWA 17 Mei - Kira-kira 7,000 penduduk terpaksa dipindahkan selepas kebakaran hutan merebak ke bandar Slave Lake di barat Kanada, di awal musim kebakaran hutan, kata pihak berkuasa semalam.
Dua kebakaran telah memusnahkan 2,900 hektar hutan berhampiran sebelum merebak ke bandar ini dan turut mengancam tiga bandar yang lain.
"Tiada amaran dikeluarkan terhadap kebakaran yang merebak dengan pantas.
"Berkemungkinan tiupan angin menyebabkan api menyeberangi lebuh raya dengan pantas ke bandar," kata Datuk Bandar Slave Lake, Karine Pillay-Kinee kepada CBC.
Banyak rumah dan bangunan telah musnah dan siaran televisyen menunjukkan 1,000 anggota bomba berusaha keras untuk memadamkan api yang sedang marak membakar sebaris bangunan, sebagai usaha menyelamatkan saki baki bandar yang terletak di 250 kilometer utara Edmonton, Alberta. - AFP

SLAVE LAKE, Alta. - Thousands of people were fleeing their homes
Sunday evening as strong winds fanned an out-of-control wildfire
into a northern Alberta town where hundreds of buildings were
destroyed and many roads to safety were blocked.
The Town of Slave Lake advised the community of about 7,000 people
to protect themselves from the wildfire by heading for parking lots,
or large, green open spaces.A general evacuation was underway.
"The town is on fire. Apparently there have been a lot of homes
that have burned down," said RCMP spokeswoman Doris Stapleton.
"There's been no loss of life. There's been no injuries we're aware of,"
she added.
Authorities warned residents to not try to flee on the highways
since they were closed.
Stapleton said the RCMP have called in all available resources to
assist in getting people out.
Staff-Sergeant Mike Proctor of Slave Lake RCMP said later "probably
30 per cent of the structures" had been destroyed by the fire.
He said when the fire hit the town, it was nine square kilometres in size.
Although Proctor said two roads leading out of Slave Lake are closed,
residents can get out through the road leading to Athabasca.
He said the mandatory evacuation was proceeding "as smoothly
as it can go."
