Rubí, Barcelona – A tragic incident struck the residents of a three-story apartment building located on Saragossa Street in Rubí, Barcelona, resulting in the death of three people. The incident occurred in the early morning hours, sending shockwaves through the city and leaving many locals in mourning.

According to reports, the fire broke out in some furniture placed at the entrance of the building, and the victims, who lived on the first floor, were trying to escape when they were caught in the flames. Despite the valiant efforts of the firefighters who rushed to the scene, the three victims had already succumbed to their injuries. Five people also suffered minor injuries and received medical attention.

The police have initiated an investigation into the cause of the blaze, and it is currently unknown whether it was accidental or caused by something else.

Meanwhile, the local authorities have expressed their condolences and have provided shelter to the displaced residents in a nearby sports facility. The mayor of Rubí, Anna Maria Martínez, spoke out about the tragedy, saying, “This is a tragic day for our city, and we are deeply saddened by the loss of three of our fellow residents. We extend our deepest sympathies to their families and loved ones and will provide them with all the necessary support during these difficult times.”
