Xiamen Airline’s Flight MF8542 had safely landed as a fire alarm mistakenly went off in the cabin.
The crew ordered an emergency evacuation of all passengers during heavy rainfall.
One of the slides suddenly deflated, probably because someone carried sharp objects. As a consequence, several people were chafed.
