Technical defect

E-buggy on fire: fire spread to building

A self-built electric vehicle parked on a trailer caught fire on a company site in Hard at around 11 p.m. on Thursday. The cause was probably a technical defect. 

When the fire department arrived at the scene shortly after 11 p.m., the e-buggy was already fully engulfed in flames and the fire was slowly spreading to a workshop. The window panes on a roller shutter were damaged before the firefighters could intervene. 

Fire quickly extinguished
The emergency services quickly had the fire under control. In addition to the 35 firefighters, eight members of the Red Cross and four police officers were on site.
