Eerie series: Sixth car fire in Flensburg within weeks!
On Sunday night, the fire department in Flensburg was alerted to another car fire. Shortly before 1 a.m., several emergency calls were received at the rescue control center in Harrislee, where residents reported a burning vehicle in the parking lot on Victoria Street. The Flensburg professional fire department was informed immediately and arrived at the scene just a few minutes later.
“The first report was that a car was ablaze,” explained Finn Döring, head of the fire department’s watch department. On site, the emergency services confirmed the severity of the fire in a Mercedes, which ultimately burned out completely. The extinguishing work took about an hour, Döring reported.
Period of increasing fire incidents
Similar incidents have occurred again and again in Flensburg in the past few weeks. Six vehicles have burst into flames in the city for around four weeks. This series of fires is puzzling the police because the causes are still unclear. The police have taken over the investigation to clarify the cause of the fire.
More recently, the owner of the burned car was contacted and informed of the total loss. The wreckage of the vehicle was later recovered and transported away by a towing company.
The repetition of such incidents not only causes excitement among local residents, but also calls for the fire brigade and the police. The safety aspects of these burning cars must be urgently considered in order to minimize possible dangers to other vehicles and residents. According to information from www.shz.de The police and the criminal investigation department continue to work with the public to collect relevant information that could help solve these mysterious fire cases.
It remains to be seen whether the emergency services will soon be able to provide more information to clarify the fires. The public is urged to be vigilant and report information that could help determine the causes of the fire.
