Villefranche-de-Rouergue A fire breaks out in an abandoned house

This is the second time in the space of a year that this abandoned house, on the Petit Languedoc promenade in Villefranche-de-Rouergue, has been engulfed by fire. Last night, around 5:30 p.m., residents were worried by a burning smell spreading through the street.

Alerted, the firefighters intervened immediately. The Villefranche-de-Rouergue company gendarmes were also on site to support the firefighters in securing the scene.

In September 2023, this house had already been partially destroyed, particularly inside, by flames. A fire which had been much more violent and had affected several vehicles parked in front of the property. Abandoned for several years, it was regularly squatted by several individuals.

Since the fire at the end of 2023, wooden panels had been put up to seal the various entrances. Once the fire is under control, findings as part of a gendarmerie investigation should be carried out to understand the causes of this second fire in this abandoned house.
