A dryer is probably the cause of the fire on Sunday evening, October 28th. A dozen firefighters were on site.
The alert was given at approximately 6:00 pm by a neighbor in the Cazault Street building who spotted smoke. The fire was actually brewing in the basement of Kabul restaurant, located at number 19 of the street. "Probably due to a dryer on the reserve," said the fire chief. A dozen of them, rescue centers of Alençon and Saint-Denis-sur-Sarthon, intervened on the spot.
The dryer was extracted and then it was necessary to ventilate all the rooms. "The smoke spread to the ground floor where the restaurant is located. The apartments above are unoccupied and untouched.
One of the owners, Sultan Nouristani, was there with his wife. "We are waiting to see if we will be able to open Monday but for the moment, we can not enter. We hope it will be possible. "
