Sad awakening this morning for the Portoscuso community. During the night, around 2.00 am, four cars caught fire in the center, parked in front of the Don Pedro Hotel Restaurant. The fire brigade and the carabinieri intervened on site and carried out investigations and started investigations to trace the causes that generated the fire.
«We still don’t know the causes that caused the fire – said the mayor of Portoscuso, Ignazio Atzori, this morning – although in these cases the origin is often malicious. For the image of the town it is undoubtedly a very bad blow, an event which occurred right in the centre, in the heart of the town, similar episodes are not remembered. The municipal administration expresses solidarity with the owners of the destroyed cars and the owners of the hotel.»
«It’s a very serious matter – added Don Antonio Mura, parish priest of the town’s churches, who went to the site early in the morning – a punch in the stomach for the entire community which is already experiencing a very difficult socio-economic situation. »
