A tire shop destroyed, a restaurant hit by fire and evacuated and two firefighters in hospital. The consequences of a fire that broke out in the early afternoon in Senorbì , on the outskirts of the town, are serious .

The commercial activities are in via Manzoni . The flames started from a nearby canebrake : several forestry teams worked on the front. But the fire took over and reached a pile of tires , which further fueled the flames.

A dense column of black smoke developed above the town and the fire also reached the restaurant next door, which was evacuated.

Numerous fire brigade teams arrived on site from the Mandas di Sanluri detachments and teams from the Cagliari command headquarters with the support of tankers and off-road vehicles equipped with forest firefighting modules for interface operations with the peripheral area of the country.

Two firefighters involved in the intervention needed medical attention : it is not clear whether due to intoxication or illness. They were transferred to the Polyclinic for checks .
