Firefighters put out a fire in two containers in Arrecife early this Wednesday morning, as reported by the Emergency Consortium.

The containers were located on Muyay and Temisa streets, two very close streets in the capital's Altavista neighborhood.

The CECOES was alerted to the fire at around 5 in the morning, so agents from the Local Police and firefighters were dispatched. The first of the containers to burn was the one on Muyay Street, which was for cardboard collection, and minutes later a container of organic waste was burned on Temisa Street. Both have been extinguished with water and foam.
