Three cars burn in busy Torrevieja street

Three cars were impacted by a fire that broke out on Ulpiano Street in Torrevieja at 5:32 a.m. on Wednesday 26th February.

While firefighters were able to put out the fires in two of the cars, the local police surrounded the scene. By the time the police came, the other car had already caught fire.

Some witnesses speculate that the fire may have begun when a building inhabitant set fire to a van that was purportedly owned by another squatter. Two further cars parked on either side were soon engulfed in flames.
