A violent fire It broke out late yesterday evening inside a restaurant located in Marina di Casal Velino, in the province of Salerno. The fire, which started in the kitchen of the restaurant, was triggered, according to initial reconstructions, by a short circuit from a fryer.

Also on site were the 118 health workers, who gave first aid to the restaurateur, who was then transported by ambulance to the Vallo della Lucania hospital for further medical checks.
Investigations are now underway to clarify the dynamics of theaccident and determine any responsibilities. The premises suffered significant damage, but fortunately, there were no casualties.
