Fire brigade use in Bochum: Dachshund from smoky apartment saved!

On Saturday morning, February 22, 2025, the Bochum fire brigade was alerted in a apartment building in Rosenbaumweg due to strong smoke. At 10:02 a.m., the operating control center received an emergency call after a smoke detector had triggered and the smell of fire was found in the stairwell. An intensive smell of fire was already perceptible on site, but fortunately the residents of the apartment in question were not present. Instead, two dachshunds were suspected in the smoky apartment, which had to be saved at all costs, such as n-tv.de reported.

The fire brigade equipped itself with breathing apparatus and penetrated into the heavily smoky rooms. Thanks to the quick use, the duo of Dackeln could be saved from the apartment unharmed. The other tenants of the house had already brought themselves to safety before the fire brigade arrived, so that there were no injuries. The fire was caused by burnt food on the stove, which could be deleted quickly. In order to remove the poisonous flue gases, the staircase was then ventilated with a high-performance fan, reported fireworld.at .

After a good 30 minutes, the fire brigade was completed, and the two dachshunds could be brought back to their owners safely. A total of 25 firefighters were on site who acted quickly and effectively to prevent worse things.
