Heroism in Höchst: fire brigade saves life, city solidarizes!
Höchst, Deutschland - On February 18, a fire broke out in a commercial building in Höchst, which presented the fire brigade with great challenges. Around 150 emergency services fought the flames in the winding building. Fortunately, there were no injuries and the extinguishing work could be carried out quickly. The fire brigade carried out an internal debriefing to discuss possible improvements for such operations.
During the fire, the specialist consultant ensured that the affected residents who had to leave their apartments were immediately taken care of. Without further ado, line buses were set up at the Höchst station, and the Frankfurt Red Cross activated a care center nearby. Two families needed longer emergency shelters due to the unusability of their apartments. Thanks to the incredible solidarity of the highest citizens who organized themselves through social media, help was quickly mobilized. The hostato school immediately provided its gymnasium as an emergency accommodation. Commissioner Markus Röck thanked the fire brigade for their commitment and cohesion in this emergency.| Details | |
