The fire above a clothing store happened on Monday evening. No one was injured but there was a lot of damage. Four guests in a Bed & Breakfast next door had to be evacuated. The fire brigade found pyrotechnic material (a flare or flare) in the gutter, which quickly made the link with the fiftieth day celebration of seniors in the city.
Mayor Katrien Desomer indicated yesterday that she is not taking additional measures because she does not want to punish an entire group for the behavior of a few. Last week the mayor visited the schools to explain the rules of the 50 days. Flares and other pyrotechnic materials are prohibited.
