Answer

How are police and firefighters investigating a container fire in Palma?

After the flames are out, investigators look at the burn pattern, collect samples, and check whether any accelerants were used. Witness statements and laboratory tests help determine whether the fire started by accident, through negligence, or because of deliberate arson. In cases like La Vileta, the cause is often not confirmed immediately.
