The cleanup operations of the terrible fire that broke out in a house in via Alcide De Gasperi , in Maracalagonis yesterday afternoon around 2pm, were completed just a few hours ago , just before dawn, at 5am.

The Cagliari firefighters removed tons of materials, refrigerators, furniture and more that remained engulfed in flames until 7pm yesterday.

The house was practically partially destroyed and the owners, a couple aged 69 and 77, found hospitality in the home of family members during the night. The man's wife also suffered small burns and had to seek medical attention.

So much fear and great risks for the couple who saved themselves by fleeing as soon as the fire broke out . The alarm was immediate with the arrival of ambulances, firefighters, barracelli and carabinieri. Mayor Francesca Fadda also contacted the prefecture.

Firefighters will return to the scene today to try to establish the cause of the fire.
