“We heard a big boom and we saw the flames”
Guillaume, a local resident, who lives 50 meters from the Galvanoplast factory was quietly installed at home this Friday when shortly after 9 p.m.: “We heard a big boom, we didn’t hit it at first but we quickly opened the shutters to see what was happening and there we saw that the factory was catching fire. Given the risk of chemical fumes, the firefighters told us, when we called them to report the disaster, that it was. “We should keep our windows tightly closed.”
