A house on Cederstraat in Den Bosch was destroyed by fire on Saturday night. The fire was discovered around 1 a.m. The fire was probably caused by a short circuit in the meter cupboard.
All residents were able to leave the house on time.
A woman was checked by ambulance staff. She was short of breath because she had inhaled some smoke. Ultimately, she did not need to be taken to a hospital.
Gas fire
The fire damaged the gas pipe in the house. This caused a gas fire. The fire brigade managed to stop the gas supply, after which the gas fire was extinguished.
The damage to the house is extensive. A 112 correspondent suspects that the house will be uninhabitable for the time being.
Despite the time of night, the fire attracted a lot of attention.
