A serious fire reported early on the morning of January 17, 2026, in an industrial warehouse in Reus (Baix Camp) caused the partial collapse of the roof and required the precautionary confinement of nearby homes.

The fire, which started at the back of the warehouse located on Alcalde Pasqual street, severely damaged the building's roof, which was left almost completely destroyed.
The Generalitat Firefighters mobilized a large deployment of seventeen units to control the situation, after receiving the alert around 6:17 AM.
The affected warehouse belongs to a frozen food company, and the flames consumed several refrigeration units and motors.
Extinguishing efforts were carried out from outside the building using a turntable ladder, aiming to sectorize the fire and prevent it from spreading to the neighboring warehouse.
