Even if the firefighters of the neighboring towns were called to the rescue to lend a hand to their colleagues, the business suffered heavy damage caused by the fire which did not spare the adjoining businesses.
They were still damaged by water, flames and smoke, while a dozen fire trucks were mobilized in a fierce fight against the disaster which was eventually brought under control.
