The timely intervention of the firefighters prevented the fire from spreading to the entire building and allowed the woman and her baby to be saved.
Moments of fear in the small town of Salina di Viadana, in the province of Mantua. Here, yesterday morning, a fire decidedly unexpected, especially given its origin, it broke out in a house in via Martelli. We know well how a short circuit can be dangerous when it involves a small or large household appliance, sometimes close to flammable materials. In this case it all happened because of a dryer.
The protagonist of the incident was a woman thirty years old and his baby girl just three months old who were rescued by firefighters and transported to hospital for checks. In fact, the two were taken away before the worst could happen. It is often smoke that precipitates events in the event of a fire breaking out.
Flames erupted around at 9 in the morning in the apartment, originating from a short circuit in the dryer. The woman, noticing the smoke, promptly removed the little girl from the room and gave the alarm to the firefighters. In other known cases on the Peninsula there was not enough time to escape the flames.
The firefighters of the Viadana detachment intervened promptly, putting the fire under control flames which had spread to the laundry room. The fire damaged part of the room, but fortunately the apartment remained usable.
Together with the firefighters, the 118 rescuers also arrived on site and provided first aid to the mother and child. The two, who had inhaled some smoke, were transported to hospital under yellow code as a precaution, but their conditions do not cause concern. The dryer is under the scrutiny of experts who are assessing what problem or defect triggered the potentially fatal accident.
L'timely intervention firefighters prevented the fire from spreading to the entire building and allowed the woman and her baby to be saved. The accident, although not serious, serves as a reminder to always pay attention to home safety and carry out maintenance on electrical systems and appliances. At the moment, however, the Viadana police are investigating the case.
