A Bpost truck burst into flames at a sorting centre in Neder-Over-Heembeek on Sunday morning.

The Brussels Fire Brigade was called to Neder-Over-Heembeek in the north of Brussels on Sunday morning, where a Bpost truck had burst into flames.

"Colleagues from the Flemish Brabant West fire zone took care of the extinguishing work. We were responsible for the water supply," Brussels fire brigade spokesperson Walter Derieuw told Bruzz.

The truck was empty and no one was injured. The Brussels-Ixelles police zone has stated that the fire was caused by a technical error.

"No parcels or letters were lost. The lorry was not loaded," Bpost spokesperson Mathieu Goedefroy told VRT. "We are very relieved that there were no casualties in the fire."
