Hot night for the fire department! While cars were burning in Charlottenburg and Kreuzberg, a Dixi toilet was on fire in Friedrichshain.

Late on Monday evening around 10:45 p.m., the fire brigade moved to Reichenberger Strasse in Berlin-Kreuzberg out.

Residents had called the emergency services because there were flames from a Mercedes SUV. Despite swift extinguishing work, the car could not be prevented from being totaled, the police said on Tuesday.

The next mission a little later. Around 12:30 a.m., a passer-by discovered in Sybelstrasse Charlottenburg a burning Smart and called the fire department. The emergency services extinguished.

However, an Opel parked behind was damaged by the heat. The Smart burned out completely.
