Firefighters in Osterholz-Scharmbeck: Car completely destroyed!

On Monday evening, at 11:08 p.m., the Osterholz-Scharmbeck local fire brigade was alerted after a car on the street to Wienbeck caught fire. 15 emergency services with three vehicles arrived at the scene, where they immediately started extinguishing work. A group of breathing protection prevented the flames from attacking a vehicle parked nearby.

During the use, burning fuel spread on the sloping road. Another C-tube was used to avert a danger to other vehicles. In addition, the fire brigade built a dam to prevent the dirty fire water from flowing into Wienbeck. The lower water authority was also used for use. The site was finally handed over to the police at around 0:30 a.m. Investigators assume a technical defect as a cause of the fire, while the vehicle was completely destroyed by the flames. Fortunately, there were no injuries. A fire engine from the fire brigade had to be towed in Pennigbüttel due to a clutch damage to the fire brigade center, such as Weser-Kurier reported.
