Naples - A new fire has ravaged eastern Naples, just days after the blaze that devastated a warehouse on Via Santa Maria di Costantinopoli delle Mosche.
This time, the flames broke out in a warehouse on Via Galileo Ferraris, on the ground floor of a residential building. Inside, electric bicycles and scooters were stored, which quickly fueled the fire, releasing thick black smoke visible from a distance. The possibility of a forced labor request has emerged.
Residents flee in the night
The fire spread within minutes, forcing the building's residents to quickly evacuate their homes. Families, gathered in the street in panic, were able to return only after the intervention of firefighters and local police, who secured the area and verified the building's stability.
Local shopkeepers also gathered at the scene, concerned about their businesses, located just a few meters from the flame-engulfed shop.
Investigations are underway into the cause of the fire.
Investigators are now trying to clarify the cause of the fire.

The owners were interviewed by the police, who are investigating the fire, and they ruled out extortion demands or threats. A possible connection to the previous fire that occurred a few days ago in the same area has been ruled out. However, no hypothesis has been ruled out at this time.
The precedent in Via Santa Maria di Costantinopoli delle Mosche
The latest incident brings to mind the fire of a few days ago, when a raging blaze destroyed a warehouse used for storage by a Chinese company. A firefighter was injured by the shockwave from an exploding gas cylinder, while an eighty-year-old disabled man nearly suffocated from smoke. Two apartments were completely blackened, and seventeen families were evacuated.
In that case too, investigators had launched a series of investigations to establish the origin of the flames, without excluding any leads.
Two fires in the same area of the city in just a few days have rekindled residents' concerns about the safety of storage areas and workshops on the lower floors of buildings. Local authorities have ensured stricter controls to prevent further incidents and ensure the proper handling of potentially flammable materials.
