SETTIMO SAN PIETRO - In Settimo San Pietro the fire attacked an area on the outskirts of the town with the intervention of the foresters and the firefighters who extinguished the fire and made the site safe. We are now investigating the causes of the fire and any responsibilities. Other episodes also occurred in the afternoon in the countryside of Selargius and Quartucciu with interventions by the Fire Brigade who limited the damage. Here, too, the flames have crossed uncultivated areas, finding it easy to come out of the stubble.
