The flames rose high, visible for miles, devouring an entire commercial warehouse in Forino, in the province of Avellino, in just a few hours. A violent and sudden fire transformed a warehouse of fruit and vegetable crates into an inferno of melted plastic and crumpled sheet metal. The fire broke out in the late afternoon, when no one yet imagined that the evening would turn into an hour of fear and desperation.
The uncle and nephew, owners of the building, did not hesitate for a moment: they tried to put out the fire by themselves, throwing themselves into the flames in a desperate race against time. But the heat was unbearable, the flames too fast. Both were burned, although fortunately their conditions are not serious. The 45-year-old was transferred to a hospital in Naples to receive specialized care.
The fire destroyed a truck, a car, a scooter and most of the material in the warehouse. The extinguishing operations by the Fire Brigade, who arrived with teams from the Provincial Command of Avellino and Montella's detachment, lasted all night and ended only at first light of dawn.
According to initial reports, the flames would have started in the attic of the building, but the exact causes of the fire are still unclear. The Carabinieri of the local station are investigating the episode, while Forino is left with bitterness for a disaster that could have ended much worse.

The fire in Forino was really bad and destroyed a lot. It's incredible how things can change in an instant. I hope my uncle and nephew are better. It's a difficult situation for everyone, but I hope it gets resolved.
