Car caught fire on transporter: FF commander helped
On Tuesday, a car caught fire on a car transporter in Hollenstein an der Ybbs in the Amstetten district. Fortunately, the commander of the local fire department was nearby.
Josef Mandl, commander of the Hollenstein volunteer fire department, happened to be nearby and noticed the fire on the transporter. Using a garden hose and fire extinguishers, he was able to prevent the flames from spreading to an adjacent carport and garage.
After being alerted, his colleagues took over the extinguishing work and secured the area.


Make an emergency call immediately
"In such cases, it is important - as the Ybbstal commander Mandl did - to make an emergency call immediately and first of all! As a result, he was sure that his comrades would soon arrive during his own extinguishing work," writes the fire department.
