Tunisian man committed suicide on Tuesday evening when he realized that his home on Mt. Penteli, north of Athens, had been destroyed by the fire.
Reports say that the 84-year-old man was evacuated earlier by the fire service, as his house was under threat in the area between the towns of Pallini and Anthousa.
When he returned and realized that his house was destroyed by the blaze, he shot himself.
The third time house was burned by fire at Penteli
Police discovered his body early on Wednesday morning.
Reports say that this is the third time his house has been damaged, as it was also damaged by fires of previous years at Penteli.
