Saturday shortly before noon, not far from the La Paix university hospital and the Municipal Palace of Delmas, a propane gas truck suddenly caught fire for an unknown reason, near a propane gas outlet in Delmas 33 while it was about to unload.

The incident caused panic in the population. While waiting for help to arrive, residents tried to evacuate the injured to the nearest hospital.

The Delmas firefighters arrived quickly on the scene to contain the fire and prevent the fire from spreading and causing further damage, while the emergency services were activated to evacuate the injured.

No official report has been communicated for the moment, but testimonies speak of several injured seriously burned…

At least 2 cars near the disaster were completely destroyed by fire. People are in shock...

Let's recall that almost a year ago, more precisely on May 15, 2021 in Delmas 32, a propane gas station had exploded causing many victims https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-33731-haiti-flash-a-propane-gas-station-explodes-in-delmas-32.html
