The fire brigade's large -scale deployment: Fire in Neukölln causes excitement!

Drama in Berlin-Neukölln and Cologne-Zollstock! At night, burning apartments kept the fire brigade in breath in both cities and required massive rescue operations. In Berlin, 117 emergency services fought for a fire that had broken out on the second floor of a multi -storey house and quickly attacked the floor above. Eight people could be saved, including two over a turntable ladder and six people over the staircase. As a precaution, a person was taken to the hospital during the operation, while the other residents were examined by the emergency services. The exact property damage and the cause of the fire are still unclear, such as B.Z. reports .

The situation was also critical in Cologne! On Wednesday evening, several emergency calls alerted the fire brigade for a fire in an apartment on the second floor in Vorgebirgstrasse. When the fire brigade arrived, the flames already got out of the facade and threatened to hit the floor above. An injured resident was saved by a turntable ladder and handed over to the emergency services. All other residents were able to leave the building independently and unharmed. While the fire was quickly brought under control, the investigation into the cause of the fire continues. According to 24rhein , the assignment is said to have been ended at 11 p.m.

In both cases, the cause of the fire remains a mystery, and the fire brigade and the fire investigators are still in use to clarify the background. The dramatic scenes once again show how quickly fire in residential buildings can reach out and how important a quick reaction of the emergency services is.
