Dachau: Balcony fire with garden hose unsuccessful - fire brigade in use!
On Friday, August 15, 2025, there was a fire at 9:15 p.m. in Dachau, Bavaria, which broke out on the balcony of an apartment on the first floor of an apartment building on Münchner Strasse. The cause of the fire is currently still unknown, which heats up the investigation by the Fürstenfeldbruck criminal police. Despite the unclear circumstances, a resident managed to try to extinguish the fire with a garden hose, but the measure was unsuccessful.
The Dachau volunteer fire brigade was quickly on site and was able to extinguish the fire quickly. Nevertheless, the roof of the building and the adjacent area suffered damage that was caused by the flames. A resident was treated for caution for slight flue gas intoxication, which is why first aid measures were also required. The property damage is assessed in the medium to high five -digit euro range.
Investigations run
The criminal police in Fürstenfeldbruck have now investigated the cause of the fire. It remains unclear whether a technical defect or negligent behavior was triggered for the fire. The authorities strive to quickly clarify to prevent similar incidents in the future.
Observations during the fire and the first results of the investigation could possibly contribute to clarification. The fire brigade reports from the region have already pointed out that despite the quick intervention by the fire brigade, the large number of fire operations in the area have increased in recent months.
This incident once again shows how important the rapid reaction of the fire brigade is on such emergencies to protect human life and prevent greater damage. The Dachau volunteer fire brigade received encouragement from the population and local authorities for its operational readiness.
The process of dealing with this incident will show which measures need to be taken to minimize fire risks and how the fire brigade can continue to prepare for such operations.
