Drama in Rudolfsheim: Tenant saved for room fire in the old building

In the early morning hours of last Sunday, a dramatic incident occurred on Felberstrasse in Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus when a fire burn on the first floor of an old building. The exact circumstances that led to this fire are so far unclear. When the fire brigade arrived at the site, dense smoke from several windows in the apartment and the staircase was heavily smoky. The resident who fled out of his apartment had left the door open when leaving, which favored the spread of the smoke in the building.

The emergency services reacted quickly to control the Situation. With a fire line and using breathing apparatus, the fire could be deleted over the staircase. At the same time, a turntable ladder was positioned to bring several people to safety. A total of four residents were saved over the windows. In addition, the firefighters used escape filter hoods to free eight other people from the smoky apartment.

After the fire was deleted, extensive ventilation measures were required to clarify the breathing air in the building and to eliminate the risk of flue gases. Such a quick and well -established action by the fire brigade has prevented worse things and saved a lot of life.

The exact cause of the fire remains unclear, and the fire brigade will continue to investigate to clarify the background. This is further proof of the importance of fast and effective action in the event of a fire. Further information on these dramatic events can at www.krone.at
