A house has completely collapsed this Sunday, November 15, in Riba-roja d'Ebre, in the province of Tarragona, which has forced a major emergency operation to be deployed in light of the possibility that a person may have been trapped under the rubble. The Bombers de la Generalitat are working at the scene of the incident to determine whether anyone is inside the building and to assess the risks arising from the collapse of its structure.
According to the information provided by the emergency services, the alert was received at 08:02 in the morning, at which point an operation was activated that included ten fire departments. Personnel from the Sistema d'Emergències Mèdiques (SEM) also moved to the scene, which mobilized two ambulances and a joint intervention team with the fire crews to provide medical assistance in case victims are found.
The first reports indicate that the house has suffered a total collapse, although the circumstances in which the collapse occurred have not yet emerged. The identity and condition of the person who could be trapped have also not been confirmed, so the emergency teams keep their attention focused on checking whether anyone is under the remains of the property.
