• No injuries were reported, though three vehicles were damaged and the Samsen police station and nearby flats were cleared as a precaution.
• Vajira Hospital suspended outpatient services, with roughly 3,500 appointments to be rescheduled.
• Power and water were cut after poles fell and a water pipe ruptured, and traffic was closed between the Vajira and Sanghi intersections, causing severe congestion.
• City agencies and the Mass Rapid Transit Authority cordoned the area, launched investigations, and began emergency stabilization as seasonal rains raise further risk.
