Fire in Rotenburg: Drama in the pedestrian zone before midnight!

In the night of December 29, 2024, a fire broke out in Rotenburg city center, which put the fire brigade on alert. Shortly before midnight, the alarming keyword "Feuer 2" was proclaimed, accompanied by the information about a "burning business" in Große Strasse. Emergency forces from Rotenburg and Wohllsdorf immediately hurried to the scene of the accident when flames already attacked by a striking awning that was attached to the front of a building, and finally attacking the roof, such as Fireworld.at reported.

Thanks to the rapid intervention of several squads under respiratory protection, the fire could be deleted quickly. However, the subsequent revenue and control measures required time and effort, since the emergency services had to open the affected area of ​​the roof with a turntable ladder. Due to the tight construction, the neighboring building also had to be checked for possible damage, and luckily no negative results were found. A total of 51 firefighters were used with 10 vehicles, and the operation was successfully completed at around 2 a.m. Information on the amount of the damage or the cause of the fire has not yet been published by the fire brigade, explained News.de.
