Tragedy on Christmas Eve: fire chief finds lifeless father after fire

Mittelstraße, 96328 Küps, Deutschland - Küps (Bavaria)-A tragic fire disaster called for the life of a 63-year-old man on Christmas Eve. Like BILD.de reported, broke out fire in a multi-family house at around 2:30 a.m. Mittelstrasse. When the fire brigade arrived, flames were already causing two windows. Local fire chief Markus R. found when he arrived at the scene of the fire with shock that the victim was his own father, with whom he had no contact for ten years.

The emergency services, including a large number of 91 rescuers from surrounding fire departments, penetrated the heavily smoky apartment with respiratory protection devices. Despite their efforts, they could only find the lifeless man on the floor and bring it out of the building. An emergency doctor could only determine the death of the man. Another family in the same building could get to safety in good time. The amount of property damage is estimated at around 150,000 euros. The exact course of the fire is still unclear, so the criminal police have started the investigation, such as reported.
