Farm in Lower Austria
Fire department saves 120 dairy cows from flames
A large fire broke out in a farm building on a farm in Lower Austria on Saturday morning. A total of 107 firefighters had to be deployed to fight the fire. Fortunately, all 120 dairy cows were saved from an agonizing death.
The flames broke out in the early hours of the morning in Weistrach (Amstetten district). When the fire departments arrived, the roof truss of a hay barn was already fully engulfed in flames. 10 fire departments with 107 firefighters were deployed for several hours to bring the fire under control.
High property damage
The operation prevented the flames from spreading to the residential building of the Vierkanterhof. According to the fire department, the fire has been under control again since 8 a.m., but a large contingent is still busy cutting up the burning material by hand and extinguishing pockets of embers, it was reported in a press release.
No one was injured, but the damage to the roof truss and hay store is likely to be extensive.
