Cuauhtémoc, Chih.- A dense layer of smoke suddenly covered the entire city of Cuauhtémoc and the community of Anáhuac. The Fire Department reported that the smoke comes from a forest fire in Bocoyna.
It was around 4 in the afternoon when the urban area of Cuauhtémoc suddenly began to fill with smoke from the western area, first affecting neighborhoods such as Reforma, Alcaldes and Tierra Nueva. Within minutes, a strong smell of smoke was felt throughout the city.
For a few minutes the sun was covered, leaving an opaque panorama. While the smoke advanced to also affect Anáhuac.
René Martínez, head of the Cuauhtémoc city Fire Department confirmed that this is due to the strong forest fire that was activated this morning in areas surrounding San Juanito, municipality of Bocoyna.
