On video | Fire causes emergency in Vía 40 industrial complex

A fire broke out this Friday night in an industrial complex on Vía 40, north of Barranquilla.

According to the first information provided by the relief agencies, the fire originated inside a cellar. The firefighters reacted so far by sending four machines and a tank truck to try to control the situation.

The configuration was presented in the vicinity of Vía 40 with Carrera 69.

In videos sent to this medium through the Wasapea line to EL HERALDO, the flames are seen rising several meters and a dense column of smoke.

A source from the Barranquilla Fire Department told EL HERALDO that a machine for the control of chemical emergencies will also be dispatched since it is not known what materials are in the warehouse.

For their part, workers from neighboring factories assured this media that “The fire started around 7 at night. As time went by, the fire spread throughout the sector. The company where we work sent us to evacuate. “
