A large fire destroyed, on Saturday afternoon (2), the deposit of the Vitória Eletro home appliance store, located in the city of Acreland, interior of Acre. The flames scared residents and required quick mobilization of local teams to prevent fire from spreading.

According to popular reports, the fire completely consumed the deposit structure. The site’s power grid was off, which removes the hypothesis of a short circuit as the cause of the incident. The origin of the fire is still unknown and must be determined by the competent authorities.
The fire even threatened a neighboring supermarket deposit, but the joint action of two canopy trucks-one from the State Department of Paving and Sanitation (Depasa) and another from the Acousan City Hall-was critical to preventing the fire from spreading even more.
City officials also actively participated in the fight against flames, helping to contain the fire until it was fully controlled.
Despite material damage, there is no information about injured. The Civil Defense should make an assessment of the area and the Fire Department should investigate the causes of the fire in the coming days.
