⁹A truck on fire on the highway, more specifically near Caniço, close to the exit to the center of that parish, paralyzed traffic in the Santa Cruz-Funchal direction.
The Santa Cruz Firefighters are on site, as well as the Public Security Police, as documented in the photos sent to us by a reader, but we were unable to determine whether there were any injuries.
Of the Firefighters, there are seven operational on site.
