Two vehicles have been burned this Sunday morning in the heart of Arrecife.

The Security and Emergency Consortium has reported that the first of the fires occurred around 07:19, in a vehicle that was parked in the Ginory lot. Firefighters have moved to the scene, who upon arrival have verified that the vehicle was burning in its entirety, and that the one right next to it has also been affected. This last car has suffered damage to the front, the license plate, the headlights, the front bumper and the brand emblem.

When the firefighters had managed to extinguish the flames completely, the Local Police informed them of another vehicle fire on Ingeniero Paz Peraza street, very close to the area of the first fire.

Upon arrival at the second fire, the firefighters verified that the vehicle was giving off smoke from its rear. The Local Police, who had arrived moments before, had already managed to control the fire with the help of a fire extinguisher. The Consortium also points out that the vehicle had the right rear door and the driver's door unlocked, so they could be opened.

When the firefighters opened the right rear door, and as the rear seat was burning on the seat part, they proceeded to finish cooling it with water until it was completely extinguished, having to remove part of it.
