Drone in football triggers fire brigade use in Bischofshofen!

On Saturday evening, a suspicion of fire in Bischofshofen caused a nightly alarm at the fire brigade. The emergency services were called at around 10:45 p.m. after residents of an multi -party house found an intensive smell of smeared cables. The Bischofshofen fire brigade moved out with both extinguishing trains and several respiratory protection teams without delay. Fortunately, all apartments in the building could be evacuated in good time, so that no people were in danger when the emergency services went on the search for the brand.

After intensive searching of the affected apartment and checking the roof area as well as the exhaust air system of an adjacent catering operation with thermal imaging cameras, the cause of the fire smell was quickly found. It was a toy drone in football form, the battery of which overheated when charging. An unsuitable power supply was probably responsible for the fact that the device was heated in such a way that the housing began to melt. The assignment was successfully completed after around 30 minutes, and the fire brigade was able to move in again after 32 firefighters were on site to prevent worse, such as and Salzburg24 Report.
