The fire, which occurred in the early hours of Friday, impacted a store of Casas Bahia and resulted in six workers needing medical attention, with two being hospitalized. Initially scheduled to reopen on Saturday, the management decided to postpone the reopening to ensure proper cleaning and repairs in the affected areas, affecting the shopping center's normal operations.

On the day following the incident, the management dedicated efforts to support those affected and coordinate with local authorities for a thorough response. Images from the site reveal workers engaging in the cleanup process, with items removed from the stores for cleaning and restoration underway on smoke-damaged areas. This proactive approach highlights the center's commitment to ensuring a safe environment for its visitors and staff following the emergency.

The planned reopening on Sunday suggests that while the incident posed significant disruption, the management is taking steps to resume operations swiftly. This incident serves as a reminder of the potential hazards faced in public spaces and the importance of prompt response and recovery efforts to maintain community confidence in such venues.
