Pozzuoli – Mysterious fire this late morning in via delle Colmate, at number 37, where a violent fire devastated a boat storage facility.
The flames, which broke out for reasons still under investigation, involved approximately 50 vessels parked inside the structure.
The fire, probably fueled by the presence of flammable materials, quickly spread, engulfing the boats and generating a dense column of smoke visible for kilometres away.
Several teams of firefighters promptly intervened on site, engaged in an intense extinguishing activity that is still ongoing.
The operations to secure the area are complex and time-consuming, also due to the risk of further outbreaks or explosions. Fortunately, at the moment there are no reports of injuries.
The Carabinieri of the Pozzuoli company are investigating the incident, and are trying to reconstruct the exact dynamics of the fire and identify any responsibilities. No hypothesis is excluded, including that of arson.

this article is very interesting, but i wonder how such a big fire could happen in a place that seems quiet. i hope the investigations can clarify everything and that no one was injured.
