A truck transporting paper caught fire on the Cantilo Highway while approaching the General Paz area. Firefighters from Belgrano’s Station 5 responded quickly and successfully managed to control the blaze. Despite their efforts, traffic on the avenue has been restricted, with only one lane open for vehicles around noon.
The ambulance service, known as SAME, has deployed four units to the scene to handle any emergencies that may arise. Fortunately, it appears that the truck’s occupants were not seriously injured, so there was no need for medical attention.
Details about the incident indicate that the truck driver pulled to the shoulder of the road upon noticing an issue with the vehicle. Personnel from AUSA were promptly notified and coordinated with firefighters and SAME to address the situation.
This incident is still unfolding, and updates will be provided as new information becomes available. For live updates on events like this, you may want to follow local news outlets or traffic monitoring services.
