Firefighters extinguished around 05.45 hours on Wednesday morning, the fire of several garbage containers on Alfarera Dorotea Armas street in Arrecife.

Upon the arrival of the agents, Local Police officers were able to move one of the organic garbage containers so that it would not be affected by the fire that was completely affecting the others.

Of those affected by the flames, three were destined for organic waste and the other two for recycling paper and glass. The firefighters proceeded to extinguish the five containers using a quick-response hose.

Subsequently, once the fire was extinguished, they cleaned the area with water because the flames affected the walls and the sidewalk.
