Fear erupted late yesterday evening in the Monastir countryside after a car was completely engulfed in flames. The alarm was raised shortly after 10:00 PM when several reports reached the Fire Brigade operations room indicating a blaze near Provincial Road 7, the main road connecting the town to Villasor.
A rapid response team from the Cagliari Provincial Command quickly arrived on the scene. Rescuers worked to put out the fire, which had now engulfed the entire vehicle, preventing the flames from spreading to the surrounding vegetation .
No one was injured in the incident. Once the fire was extinguished and the area was secured, the Fire Brigade began initial technical investigations to determine the cause of the fire and whether it was caused by a fault or malicious intent .
