Firefighters have extinguished a fire in an abandoned house on Pérez Galdós Street in Arrecife. The fire took place at 1:40 p.m. this Monday. Once alerted by the CECOES, Local Police and firefighters from the Consortium moved to the scene.
The Local Police have closed the street to traffic for safety and to facilitate access for firefighters.
Firefighters have removed the wood that was blocking the facade in order to proceed with the extinction with water. According to the Consortium, "in the course of the extinction it is appreciated from a parallel house that affected four rooms, hallway and patio." One of the roofs of a room collapses while the fire is being extinguished.
Finally, the firefighters ventilated and cooled the house to guarantee the extinction.
