Gasleck in Laberweinting: Evacuations and road closures!

Haaderer Straße, 94539 Laberweinting, Deutschland - in Laberweinting, district of Straubing-Bogen, a striking gas smell caused excitement. On Monday, June 30, 2025, residents on Haaderer Straße noticed the intensive smell at lunchtime, which immediately rang the alarm bells. The fire brigade, the police and energy suppliers were alerted and immediately initiated the necessary security measures. "The gas leakage was suspected in the local area," reports the Bavaria police, which then set up a spacious restricted area. Around 150 meters around the suspicious resignation were sealed off, and the inhabitants of the affected buildings went to safety.

The emergency services were quickly on site and evacuated several buildings, while the residents were housed in the fire service equipment house Laberweinting. Accompanying this, the gas supply was parked as a precaution, which led to a limited energy supply in parts of Laberweinting. A spokesman said that the gas lines were quickly localized and switched off, which could minimize a possible hazard. "We thank the citizens for their patience and their understanding," it said from the official side.

security measures and evacuations

The fire brigade and auxiliary services worked hand in hand to clarify the situation. According to reports from Regio Aktuell , the evacuation measures were gradually completed, whereby the return of the residents was still being released from the final clarification of the gas exposure. Residents were repeatedly asked to avoid the area far.

A first important message was made in the afternoon: the main gas line was closed, and a short time later the leak was suspected in the sewage system at the Straubinger Straße/Haaderer Strasse intersection. The emergency services worked tirelessly to stabilize the situation and initiate the repairs. An update at 8:30 p.m. confirmed that another leak was found during the work, which made the situation no less complicated. The duration of the evacuation remained uncertain, even if the emergency services did everything possible to ensure normality as soon as possible.

collaboration of the emergency services

The continuous training of the fire brigade in terms of dealing with natural gas are of great importance. As the Baden-Württemberg State Fire Brigade School records in its training documents, the application spectrum has expanded significantly in recent years. Topics such as measures in cases of damage in natural gas supply systems, as well as the handling of gas installations in residential buildings and natural gas filling stations are on the agenda. Information on this, for example, is available from dvgw and support the emergency services with important basics and shade images.

After the repair work progressed in the evening and the first measurements were inconspicuous, the residents were finally able to return to their homes. A positive ending for a tense day in Laberweinting, which demanded a lot of everyone involved. The police and the municipality finally thank you for the excellent cooperation and the understanding of the residents who work tirelessly in the evacuation and security measures.
