Quick help with motorhome fire in Strass: driver unharmed

A dramatic incident occurred on November 6, 2024 at around 5:05 p.m. in Strass, more precisely at a petrol station. A 57-year-old German was in the process of maneuvering his motorhome from a tanker when a fire suddenly broke out. The exact reasons for the fire are still unclear, but the motorhome seemed to have caught fire due to a technical error.

The situation quickly developed into a worrying event. Passers -by and petrol station employees present reacted immediately and tried to take extinguishing attempts. Fortunately, there was a volunteer to control the fire with his knowledge of fire fighting before the fire brigade arrived.

Fast reaction of the fire brigade

The fire brigade was alerted shortly after the fire broke out and was on site within a few minutes. Their emergency services were well prepared and were able to delete the flames quickly. Thanks to the rapid measures of those present and the fire brigade, greater damage to the gas station and surrounding vehicles were prevented.

The driver of the motorhome, who was luckily unharmed, was relieved by the quick reaction of everyone involved. However, his motorhome suffered significant damage due to the flames. The exact damage to the vehicle and at the petrol station are still pending and are currently estimated.

The authorities are reminiscent of how important it is to act calmly and prudently in the event of a fire in order to minimize the risk for everyone involved. Such incidents are not only dangerous, but can also have serious consequences for the infrastructure and the people in the area.
