Huge alarm in the Spandau-Nord fire brigade station!
At around 4 p.m., the special device suddenly gave out during an exercise with a measuring device for contaminated hazardous substances.
Suspicion of warfare agents!
The guard on Triftstraße was cleared, and forces in NBC special suits secured the area. A second measuring device confirmed the high value. However, there was no evidence of actual contamination. Experts suspect that the measuring devices were set incorrectly.
LKA officials were called with another measuring device to be on the safe side. Around 6 p.m., the responsible emergency services gave the all-clear. In the evening, the LKA specialists investigated why the devices had triggered.
