Earlier, it was reported as breaking news that a text message from a district office in Daejeon urged residents to evacuate due to around 70 fierce dogs escaping from a dog farm, but it has been confirmed that the message was sent in error. The Daejeon Dong-gu Office sent out a message at 10 a.m. today stating that around 70 fierce dogs had escaped from a dog farm in Samgwa-dong, Dong-gu, warning residents of the four neighborhoods in Dong-gu to avoid the area and evacuate to a safe place immediately. However, later investigation by the fire authorities revealed that only 2 to 3 ordinary dogs had actually escaped, and the farm owner had caught all of them. The circumstances surrounding the erroneous message sent by the district office are currently being investigated.
