“There were no fatalities or injuries, because the road conditions were quiet. It’s just that the access road for residents in Karang Tengah Village was disrupted,” he said.

As a handling, officers deployed six related elements, namely the Tangerang Regency BPBD, Pagedangan Police, Legok Koramil, Pagedangan District, Karang Tengah Village and Tagana, to carry out the process of closing access.
