大埔宏福苑發生五級火，增至13人死亡15人傷。其中9人在現場證實死亡，另外4人送抵醫院後不治。一名消防員在火警中殉職。傷者分別被送往北區醫院、威爾斯醫院及大埔那打素醫院。 消防處表示，火警涉及多幢32層高住宅，全部搭建了棚架進行維修，由於外圍棚架起火並蔓延，現場環境非常惡劣，不斷有雜物跌下來，求助案亦增加，因此要將火警升至五級。警方已設立熱線讓市民查詢火警的死傷者資料，熱線號碼為1878 999。 警方在下午近3時接獲途人報案，指宏昌閣的外牆棚架起火，之後陸續收到許多住客報案指在單位內未能逃生，包括宏昌閣、宏泰閣及宏新閣。 宏福苑共有8幢大廈，翻查業主立案法團資料，屋苑正進行大維修，包括進行外牆批盪噴漿，所有大廈均搭有棚架及蓋上棚網。
