Genoa, fire in an office. The flames spread to the apartments above: a building in Corso Sardegna evacuated
Genoa – A big fire broke out this evening inside an office in Corso Sardegna. In a few moments, flames and smoke spread inside a nearby apartment building, in the initial part of the street.
The firefighters, the cars and the local police intervened on the spot. The clearing of the building is underway. The causes of the fire and if there are injured or intoxicated are still unknown.
The shutdown operations necessitated the momentary Corso Sardegna closes in the direction of Valbisagno.
The fire seems to have started in an office on the ground floor of number 53. “The smoke we are is in our homes from the door and by instinct they tell us all on the balconies”, a couple residing on the fourth floor of the building, after having been visited by 118 in an ambulance of the Yellow Cross. Three ambulances are on the spot now, a fourth has already accompanied a woman to San Martino, in yellow code. The flames were spent and, subsequently, the firefighters carried out the reclamation and verification operations to understand if the evacuated families will be able to return home for the night.
