Tragedy in Amstetten: Gasthof fire demands human life!

In a shattering incident in Amstetten, a municipality in the Alb-Donau district, a 58-year-old resident was found dead after a devastating fire in an inn. The police confirmed that it is very likely to be the owner of the building, who is said to have caused the fire itself according to initial investigations. There is no evidence of an external impact, which makes the circumstances of the tragic incident further mysterious.

The alarm was triggered on Wednesday afternoon when an attentive resident densely smoke and flames rose from the inn and immediately alerted the fire brigade. In a short time, over 110 firefighters were on site to extinguish the lights of the fire. After the flames were brought under control, the emergency services discovered the man's lifeless body. The difficult rescue of the deceased was drawn into the night hours because the risk of collapse of the building delayed the rescue work.
