Car catches fire at a petrol station in Elche

On Monday, March 17, at noon, a small van set alight in the vicinity of the petrol station pumps on the road from Santa Pola to Elche, at the exit from the EL-20 highway.

The Provincial Consortium has dispatched two fire personnel to extinguish the fire that has consumed the vehicle.

Fortunately, the fire crews’ prompt response prevented the fire from encroaching on the petrol station premises, thereby preventing a potentially hazardous situation. Consequently, only material damage was documented.
