Fire in Kiel Clinic: Fast reaction from the fire brigade saves life!

Kiel, Deutschland - pay yourself on alert: a fire broke out in a Kiel clinic this afternoon! At 2:58 p.m., the fire alarm system was activated in the facility, which led to an immediate major alarm from the Kiel fire brigade. Thanks to the quick reaction, the emergency services were sent with a higher contingent, as well as fireworld.at . When the fire brigade arrived, they found smoke development in a technical room that is located directly under the helicopter landing site.

The situation required ambiguous measures: the fire brigade alerted the emergency services and increased the operational keyword on fire 2. Fortunately, there was never a risk of patients. A specialized team with heavy respiratory protection went for fire fighting and further exploration, while an additional security team was on standby two floors below the fire location. The fire that had broken out in a switching box was successfully deleted with the help of a CO2 extinguisher. Nevertheless, the helicopter landing site is temporarily out of operation, since this switching box is responsible for the lighting and heating of the square. In the meantime, adjacent air rescue services were informed to avoid possible overload during the extinguishing work, such as news.de noted.
