Four detained in connection with forest fire

Four people have been detained after a fire in San Nicolás del Puerto, in the Sierra Norte Natural Park in Sevilla, destroyed 70 hectares of land.

The detainees were found in a motor home which was parked in a prohibited area. They were making a film in the area. They have been charged with causing a fire through negligence and are shortly due to appear before a judge in Sevilla.

The fire forced the precautionary evacuation of hundreds of scouts at the El Martinete camp site.
