A fire broke out last night at a FedEx shipping branch in Elmas.
Firefighters responded to reports from several motorists who saw flames erupting in the company's industrial building shortly before 11 p.m.
Two teams, supported by two fire engines, arrived on the scene and had to work for a long time to put out the fire: the flames were spreading to warehouses and other parked cars.
According to initial reports, eleven vehicles used daily for transportation and deliveries were caught in the fire. Other vehicles, the building's facade , and the loading and unloading area were also damaged. Carabinieri officers were also on site.
An investigation into the incident is ongoing; traces of flammable liquid were found at the scene. The Carabinieri also interviewed the manager of the FedEx center, who provided no useful information to explain the reasons that might have driven someone to set the fire.
