Four residents had to be evacuated by firefighters after a fire broke out inside a block of apartments in Xlendi, Gozo yesterday morning.Members of the Civil Protection Department from Station 6 were called to the scene after the structure fire resulted in heavy smoke spreading through the building’s common areas, making it unsafe for residents to leave through the usual routes.With smoke filling the communal spaces, CPD firefighters used a Turntable Ladder to safely evacuate four residents from the building, bringing them down to safety as emergency crews worked to deal with the incident.Officers from the Malta Police Force’s 12th Police District were also on site assisting with the operation, alongside a medical team from the Emergency Department at Gozo General Hospital.Thankfully, despite the fire and the amount of smoke inside the building, no injuries were reported following the operation.The cause of the fire was not specified in the information released by the Civil Protection Department.Well done to all the emergency responders involved in bringing the residents to safety.Photo credits to @civilprotectionmalta•
