Fire in the children's room: three injured in Marktredwitz near Feuerdrama!
In the night of Tuesday, April 22, 2025, a fire broke out in the children's room in a single-family house on Peter-Vischer-Straße in Marktredwitz. According to Fireworld) The residents alerted the fire brigade shortly after 11:20 p.m. The first attempts to extinguish were made by family members until the fire brigade was quickly on hand.
The rapid intervention of the fire brigade was able to prevent worse things. The fire was contained, but three people suffered, including a child, flue gas poisoning and partially fire injuries. The injured were immediately brought to surrounding hospitals while the parents received the needed treatment. Fortunately, they were able to leave the clinics later.
cause and investigation
The criminal police Hof has taken over the investigation into the cause of the fire. Initial indications indicate that an electrical device is considered as a cause of the fire. The damage to property is estimated at around 10,000 euros, as Wiesentbote reports.
The importance of smoke detectors has proven again, because the installed smoke detector in the household alerted the residents at an early stage and thus contributed to the safety of the family. Preventive measures like this are crucial, because the statistics show that the number of brand deaths in Germany has been falling since the 2000s, but still has a risk.
fire statistics and trends
according to Rauchmern-Lebensversmat, the number of brand deaths in Germany has been reduced by less than half over the past 30 years. In 1990 there were still 787 fire deaths, while in 2020 there were only 388. Despite an increase in fire brigade operations for fires and explosions since 2014, the number of brand deaths is still declining. These developments make it clear how important it is to act preventively and to invest in security measures.
The events in Marktredwitz are a further memory of the dangers of fires in residential areas and the need to take suitable safety precautions.
