Fortunately, there were no injuries, but the property damage could be significant.

The fire departments from Ventschow, Hohen Viecheln, Jesendorf, Bad Kleinen and Schlagsdorf had to work together to tame the flames and prevent the fire from spreading further. The dangers of such a fire should not be underestimated, especially in dry peak periods. Large fire engines and numerous emergency services were mobilized to quickly bring the danger under control.
