Seven containers were stacked together, twisted, deformed, and damaged. There were also staff passing by and standing beside them to check, and a suspected yellow construction vehicle was also seen parked aside.

There were other workers working at the dock at the time, and they rushed over to check when they heard the loud noise, worrying that people and cars would be crushed under the ground. Fortunately, no one passed by and no one was injured.
