Fire on the pure car and truck carrier MIGNON on 4th of April 2018

Just after midday on April 4, the fire alarm started on the pure car and truck carrier MIGNON. Smoke and fire were soon detected on deck 1. The crew decided to use the CO2 system to extinguish the fire. A couple of hours later, the crew found that the fire was extinguished, but it was decided to keep doors and dampers to the area closed to minimize the risk of new ignition. The fire resulted in extensive damage to the cargo on deck 1 and 2 (damage to approximately a hundred cars and some structural damage to deck 1 and 2), but no personal injuries.
