112 news: fire in Helmond • N272 closed due to flooding

A fire broke out in an electrical box in Sint-Oedenrode. The box is in the water on the Huisakkerweg due to the large amount of rain. The fire brigade tried to pump out the water, but the pump turned out to be too small in power.

Another pump is now in use, the water is pumped into a ditch further away. Smoke comes from the cupboard, the street is cordoned off.

A short circuit probably occurred due to the large amount of rain.
