Smoke development in Volkach: Fire brigade saves from technical fire!

Von WOM

A shocking incident occurred on Friday morning in Volkach when an attentive neighbor prevented a potential disaster! At 8:20 a.m., the fire brigades from Astheim and Volkach were alerted after the neighbor noticed Rauch from an apartment building on Sonnenstrasse. A triggered smoke detector and the rising smoke were feared - possibly people were still in the apartment!

The emergency services quickly arrived at the scene. The head of operations immediately started exploring and building the extinguishing attack. Respiratory protection equipment wearers made their way to the fourth floor, where the fire had broken out. A turntable ladder was positioned to check the outside of the apartment with a thermal imaging camera. Thanks to a riser line, the extinguishing water could be made available quickly so that the firefighters could proceed under respiratory protection.

Fortunately, it turned out that there were no people in the smoky apartment. The fire had been caused by a technical defect in electrical appliances. The firefighters quickly deleted the flames and brought the devices outdoors. The apartment was then thoroughly ventilated with a high -performance fan. The Volkacher team was on site with four emergency vehicles and 20 firefighters, while the Astheim fire brigade was on standby. The operation was successfully completed at around 10 a.m.
