A tragic death was found a 70 -year -old woman in Piga Trikala when a fire broke out at her home at about 9:00 on Tuesday night, under uncertain circumstances at the moment.

The unfortunate woman, who was charred, lived alone for two years. As pylinews.gr reports, the 70 -year -old was facing mobility problems and so he was unable to react immediately after the fire event, thereby finding a tragic death. Early reports say that firefighters who entered the burning house found the unfortunate woman behind the door of the house, indicating that she made an effort to escape, but did not succeed.

The fire was perceived by the villagers, especially after the two possible explosions that were heard and alerted the Trikala Fire Service.

According to the service, 9 firefighters with 4 vehicles rushed to the spot, but failed to unleash the elderly woman alive, as the house had been completely destroyed. The men of the Fire Brigade managed to limit the fire before expanding to neighboring houses, much worse in the gas tank used by the 70 -year -old as heating.

The preliminary investigation of the exact causes and conditions under which the incident occurred has been undertaken by the competent Department of PY Trikala.
