As a result, the agents confined the affected warehouse and focused efforts on ventilating it, aiming to prevent the smoke from spreading to neighboring warehouses. According to 112, “the complication in the intervention was finding access to the affected warehouse since the warehouses are contiguous without corridors.”
The firefighters managed to control the incident in a few minutes, although the affected warehouse is still being ventilated due to smoke. According to the Emergencies service, there are no injured or intoxicated persons. Now, the Civil Guard is in charge of the relevant investigations.
