Fire in Bremerhaven: Fire brigade saves animals and three people from flames

in Bremerhaven, more precisely in the Lehe district, burned a housing center early Monday afternoon, which caused a sensation. The alarm went into the integrated regional control center at 1.40 p.m. The emergency call reported that three people were in an apartment in Leher Rickmersstraße and a fire had broken out. Numerous emergency services, including the professional fire brigade and the Lehe volunteer fire brigade, as well as emergency services were mobilized.

When the fire brigade arrived on site, the situation was already a little more relaxed. The relatives in the affected apartment were able to leave the building independently, which certainly contributed to damage minimization. Two children who had inhaled flue gases were immediately cared for by the emergency services and taken to a Bremerhaven hospital.

The fire brigade was not long asked and immediately started the extinguishing work. Two attack troops went to the affected apartment on the third floor. They could not only fight the fire, but also save a dog from the fire apartment. A cat that was also there was found in another, non -affected room and kept safe to the end of the missions.

While the firefighters acted in the lowest area of the apartment, there was another challenge on the fourth floor. A woman drew attention to herself by waiting at the window. After the emergency services had made the staircase smoke -free, they were able to get the woman unharmed. Fortunately, there were no other people in the building.

The fire brigade was not alone: a total of 41 emergency services were on site, and the police also set up several patrol cars in the area of the event to ensure security and to redirect traffic. At 3:15 p.m., the fire brigade could finally be declared.

In post -processing, smoke development turned out to be a significant problem. The wind from the south had pressed the fire smoke to the facade and let it penetrate into the neighboring attic apartment. This was precisely checked and ventilated to luckily find without having to find it.

The fire brigade has not yet been able to provide any information on the cause of the fire, as it remains unclear at the moment. It remains to be seen whether upcoming reports will bring more information about the cause research, such as cityreport.pnr24-online.de reported.
