In Vilassar de Dalt, authorities reported a grim discovery after a fire response in the early hours. The Generalitat Bombers confirmed that a caravan was completely consumed by flames, and the blaze was brought under control by firefighting teams on the scene. The incident prompted a rapid mobilization of local resources and prompted a formal investigation to determine what happened and how the fire started.
Emergency crews were alerted at 02:46, prompting two teams to join forces with the Local Police to tackle both the vegetation fire and the smoke-filled area surrounding the affected site. Their coordinated effort aimed to prevent the flames from spreading further into nearby brush and to secure the location for a thorough assessment once the flames were suppressed.
The fire devastated a caravan and cast embers onto adjacent vegetation, covering an estimated area of about 400 square meters. Debris and assorted waste materials were discovered within and around the caravan, contributing to the complexity of the scene and the need for careful handling by investigators and responders alike.
After the blaze was extinguished, investigators conducted an initial examination of the site. The preliminary assessment revealed the presence of a deceased individual at the location. The scene was treated with caution as responders worked to preserve potential evidence while ensuring the safety of everyone involved in the ongoing inquiry.
The Mossos d’Esquadra were assigned to identify the victim and lead the investigative effort into the circumstances surrounding the fire. Their team coordinated with local authorities to gather evidence, interview witnesses, and review nearby surveillance where available, all with the aim of uncovering the sequence of events that led to the incident and to determine whether any violations or hazards contributed to the tragedy.
