A fire broke out in a warehouse at Tom Jobim International Airport, in Rio de Janeiro, earlier this afternoon (18). The fire caused an intense column of smoke, seen from several points in the center, the north zone and Baixada Fluminense. The Fire Department of the State of Rio de Janeiro still does not have information on injuries and says it was called at 1:46 pm. Firefighters are already on the spot fighting the fire, and the barracks on Ilha da Governador, Grajaú, São Cristóvão, Central, Irajá, Nova Iguaçu, Penha, Tijuca and Catete have been mobilized. The Rio de Janeiro City Hall Operations Center issued an alert on its social media profiles for drivers to travel carefully on the Linha Vermelha, an expressway that passes by the airport.
