The strong gusts of wind on Wednesday left two incidents in Arrecife, which forced firefighters to intervene.
The Security and Emergency Consortium went to Luján Pérez street in Arrecife after a warning of a tree branch about to fall. Alerted by an individual around 4:30 in the afternoon, the firefighters went to the scene and proceeded to cut the branch in question to leave it in a safe place.
Barely an hour and a half later, firefighters were alerted to a second incident, a lamppost about to fall on Calle León y Castillo, in the center of Arrecife. After arriving at the scene, the security forces disconnected it and removed it from the sidewalk to put it in a safer place for pedestrians.
Finally, they left the area marked and informed the CECOES of the completion of the service. The Local Police also went to the scene.
