The most serious incident occurred around 10:00 PM on Sunday in an apartment on Ferraz street, in the capital. Madrid City Firefighters extinguished a small fire that originated in a bathroom. A 38-year-old man suffered second-degree burns to his face and arm, as well as smoke inhalation, and was stabilized and transferred in serious condition to La Paz Hospital.

Hours later, in the early morning of Monday, another fire affected a semi-detached single-family home on Tejera Negra street, in the Perales del Río neighborhood, Getafe. Nine fire crews from the Community of Madrid worked to control the flames, which had advanced considerably and incinerated the attic, but they managed to prevent them from spreading to neighboring properties.
As a consequence of this second fire, Summa 112 attended to a 58-year-old man with burns covering approximately 20 percent of his body surface. After receiving initial assistance at the scene, he was evacuated in moderate condition to Getafe Hospital. Additionally, a 54-year-old woman suffered minor burns on one hand and was also taken to the same hospital for assessment and treatment.
