A 20-year-old man was apprehended by the Fier Police in flagrante delicto following an arson incident that caused significant fire damage across the village of Drizë and adjacent areas. According to a statement from the State Police, the young man is suspected of initiating the blaze on land owned by his father on Sunday, with the alleged intent of burning pastures. However, the resulting flames quickly escalated beyond control, spreading rapidly across a wide geographical area and impacting several neighboring villages.
The incident involved multiple emergencies, including a fire reported in an olive grove in Fier, necessitating a coordinated effort between firefighters and local residents to extinguish the flames. Due to the escalating danger posed by the uncontrolled fire, authorities were compelled to evacuate twelve families whose residences were deemed at risk. State Police forces, alongside firefighting units, were mobilized in a major operation to contain and extinguish the spreading fire.
The arrest of the young man underscores the investigation into the cause of the disaster. Authorities continue to manage the aftermath of the incident, focusing on securing the area and addressing the damage sustained by private property. The investigation remains active to determine the full scope of the negligence that led to the widespread emergency.
