According to a spokesperson for the safety region, it concerns a business premises. “Because it is Sunday, there were probably no people in the building.” The fire was under control around 8:10 p.m. An investigation is now underway to determine whether the fire is really out. The fire brigade is currently working to ventilate the building.
The first reports of the fire were received by the emergency services at 7:23 p.m. Shortly afterwards the fire was scaled up to a very large fire. This means that there is a complex situation that requires maximum effort and coordination. A large number of vehicles and firefighters are also deployed, often supported by regional units.
According to the spokesperson, the smoke development has not been too bad so far. “You would expect the smoke to be visible for miles around. That could indicate that the fire is not too bad.”
Anyone who is bothered by smoke is advised to close windows and doors and switch off ventilation systems.
