A Porsche burnt on Songridan-gil...You pour a glass of water and don't know me.

JTBC's 'Case Team Leader' press screen

A crew member of a large airline left the vehicle on fire in the parking lot of the cafe, leading to a major fire.

According to a report by JTBC's Case Team Leader on the 16th, a Porsche car was burned in a parking lot on the first floor of a building located on a high street in Songpa-gu, Seoul.

The fire was extinguished in five minutes by firefighters who were dispatched after receiving a report, but the accident caused about 7 million won in property damage to the restaurant as customers who were eating at the restaurant on the second floor were urgently evacuated. The building's parking lot and underground entrances were also in a situation where construction had to be done.

The informant, the owner of the building, was checking closed-circuit (CC) TV to determine the cause of the fire, and found a woman dressed as a flight attendant trying to start the problem vehicle for about 30 minutes, and later pouring water into the vehicle from a building cafe.

The woman left her seat with luggage such as a carrier in the car, returned a few minutes later and shot the vehicle on her mobile phone and disappeared. And a short time later, the vehicle caught fire.

After the vehicle fire, the informant claimed that a man, instead of a woman, introduced himself as a "vehicle occupant" and attempted to tow. The informant blocked a man who didn't even have a "vehicle registration card" and questioned him to get the woman's contact information.

The woman, who was contacted within hours afterwards, said, "I'm a flight attendant and I had a flight schedule. There was no alternative manpower, so I had no choice," he said, adding that he reported it to the police and fire department and left the scene. He also reportedly claimed, "I didn't know that the fire was on because I left my seat before the smoke came out."

The informant said, "I asked you to contact me after returning home, but I haven't come," and added, "When I contacted him first, he replied, 'I'm mentally tired because it's too sharp,' and 'I don't feel good about having to scrap the car because this happened.'

"Women don't have to go directly, and if you want, register at the police station. You'll be investigated properly. I will not avoid or lie,' he claimed.

The informant's building is said to have suffered secondary damage, such as customers not being able to park because of the accident for about two weeks after the fire.

The informant said, "Even now, we don't know who is the owner. I visited the district office, but he said it was impossible to tow it by force because it was private," he said, eventually calling the tow truck and the police alone last week to pull out the vehicle.

"The flight attendant responsible for the safety of hundreds of passengers on the plane would have been trained in the event of an accident, but it is deplorable to see such a lack of responsibility and morality," he added.
