There were moments of fear this evening in Dolianova where, around 6 pm, a fire broke out in a courtyard on Via Trento in the historic center of San Pantaleo.

For reasons yet to be determined, the flames apparently started in a woodshed and engulfed a car parked nearby. The homeowner, a frail elderly man, went out to try to put out the fire but found himself in difficulty and risked being engulfed by the flames.

A neighbor's quick reflexes prevented the worst . The boy grabbed the man and carried him out into the street. Fire engines and firefighters arrived on the scene and quickly put out the blaze.
