About 16:14 hours received several calls from alert on the Emergency Coordination Center 1-1-2 Region of Murcia, as in the Municipal Operations Coordination Center (CECOPAL), warning of a forest fire in the vicinity of Santa Ana del Monte on the site of "The Roalico".
He immediately activated the Civil Protection Plan for Wildfire Emergency in the Region of Murcia (INFOMUR Plan), finding it in DANGER HIGH SEASON (Cliffhanger) from the date 01/06/12 and stretching into the 30/09 / 12.
The media were mobilized immediately, endowments Defense Unit Forest Fire (UDIF), two provisions of the Consortium for Fire Fighting and Rescue based in Park Jumilla and Civil Guard troops, local police and Civil Protection in logistical work.
The characteristics of the area and the wind blowing, the firefighting became quite complicated, so we also traveled to the site by helicopter with his Helitransportada Brigade, which was not necessary involvement by how quickly terrestrial environments controlled the fire, so this returning to their base, located in the Sierra de la Pila, acting only in prevention mode.
Possible causes of the onset of fire are attributed to a possible negligence or intentional act, given the proximity to the access road, so you can not assume the origin of this, which was controlled within an hour and then the fire left him for extinct.
The burned area is in the 1800 square meters of grass, rosemary and pine about 8.
