During the night of Thursday, December 19, a fire broke out on the bales of straw and hay stored next to the Saint-Cricq roundabout, in Auch. On the morning of this Friday, a new intervention by firefighters took place after the fire started again.
The remains of the “wall” erected by the Rural Coordination caught fire. Around 11:30 p.m. on the night of Thursday to Friday, December 20, the flames consumed the bales of straw piled up near the Saint-Cricq roundabout, in Auch. On site, two national police vehicles and a fire engine brought the fire, which originated from two sources, under control.
