The Trébol hotel in Costa Teguise suffered a fire in the kitchen this Monday, specifically affecting a fryer, according to the Emergency Consortium. Three people were affected by the smoke, two of them were transferred to Molina Orosa in an ambulance from the SUC and Emerlan, and a third was treated on site and did not need to be transferred to the hospital.
The prompt response of the hotel staff, who took preventive measures such as lowering the levers of the light panel, closing the gas and keeping the doors closed, significantly facilitated the work of the firefighters and prevented the fire from spreading.
Upon arrival, the firefighters used water to reduce the temperature and then applied oil inside the fryer to extinguish the fire. The troops worked with the doors closed to contain the smoke, and broke a window to allow the gases to escape.
After the extinction, the temperature was monitored until its decrease was confirmed. The Civil Guard and the Local Police collaborated in the operation.
