There was initially no information about the cause of the fire because criminal police specialists were initially unable to enter the building. “According to current information, the fire broke out in the basement, in a storage room where paper or waste paper was stored,” explained the police spokesman. That’s why there was a lot of smoke.
The fire occurred in Nittenau in the Upper Palatinate:
150 firefighters on duty
Numerous rescue workers were on site, and the fire department arrived with 150 helpers. They were able to quickly extinguish the fire that broke out around 5 p.m. and rescued seven people using turntable ladders and extension ladders. The “Mittelbayerische” first reported on the fire.
