Smoke development in parish churches – fire brigade quickly deployed!
At around 12.45 p.m. today there was smoke in an older house on Bräugasse in Pfarrkirchen, which resulted in the fire brigade, police and the Bavarian Red Cross (BRK) being deployed quickly. Loud PNP The origin of the fire was in a small technical room of a shop there, but the exact cause of what caught fire remains unclear.
Thanks to the quick response of the emergency services, the fire was discovered and extinguished quickly. The fire department left no stone unturned and removed a large area of the burned ceiling to ensure safety in the building. Thorough ventilation was also carried out while fire sources were checked using a thermal imaging camera from the turntable ladder. What is positive to report is that there were no injuries and the material damage cannot currently be quantified.
Emergency services on site
The Pfarrkirchen and Reichenberg fire departments were on duty with around 40 active members, including district fire chief Tim Sicklinger and district fire inspector Stefan Niedermeier, who coordinated the situation on site. In order to provide the emergency services with enough space, Passauer Straße was closed for around two hours between the Venezia intersection and the junction to Schäfflerstraße.
The importance of fire safety statistics
The incident is a reminder of the importance of fire safety measures. Current Statistics in fire protection note that there are no comprehensive and uniform fire statistics in Germany, although precise data can play a crucial role in improving fire protection. In particular, documenting the causes of fires and injuries is important so that such operations can be managed more effectively in the future.
At a time when fire safety is becoming increasingly important, it is essential that both laypeople and professionals recognize the risks and take measures to prevent fires. Today's operation in parish churches is an example of how essential quick action is when fighting fires. Although community services were unable to provide concrete figures on property damage today, one thing is certain: prevention is the key to preventing future fires. We will therefore stay on the ball in any case and keep our readers up to date on further developments in this important subject area.
