The Padukka Police reported that a van, a cab, and a three-wheeler parked at a house in Mahingala, Padukka, were suddenly destroyed by fire.

Although the fire department responded to the incident, the vehicles were already fully engulfed in flames and completely destroyed by the time they arrived.

The vehicles were located on a large piece of land within an auction estate, which remains inaccessible to the public. It is still unclear whether the fire was an act of arson or if one vehicle caught fire and spread to the others.

The Padukka Police are conducting investigations to determine the cause of the fire.
