The Cañete Fire Department announced that, if they do not have police protection, they will not provide services from the Peleco crossing to the south, in the Biobío region. This, after strangers attacked and threatened volunteers in Huentelolén, which happened on Saturday.
The decision was confirmed by Cooperative Radio. As reported by the Cañete Fire Department, in the context of an emergency in Huentelolén, a group of individuals threw accelerating liquid -which failed to reach the cars- and threatened to set the fire vehicles on fire.
