Philipsburg:--- Sparks from an air-conditioning cable and a loud bang created some fear as well as confusion inside Afoo Extra Supermarket in Philipsburg on Tuesday morning. At least two fire trucks and other personnel from the fire department rushed to the scene when they were notified that a wire inside of Afoo Supermarket was sparking.Clive Richardson of the fire department said that the sparks came from an air-condition cable. Richardson said the wire sparked and it made a loud noise before the air-condition unit shut down.
Workers and customers who were inside the supermarket at the time rushed outside of the building as they made way for the firemen to locate the damaged cable.
One of the workers rushed back inside the supermarket to grab his hand bag because his passport was inside the bag. About an hour after, business at Afoo Extra was back to normal.
