Man arrested
Two fires on one property challenge fire services
Five fire departments from the surrounding area are currently at work in Spittal. A garden shed and a garage are on fire. It is still completely unclear what caused the fire. One person has now been arrested.
At 7.00 a.m. on Tuesday, the sirens sound in Spittal - flames are blazing from a garden shed on a property and dark smoke is rising from a garage. Five fire departments immediately set out to the scene with 69 men.
"The garden shed has burned down completely, the fire in the garage is under control," explains Johannes Trojer, commander of the Spittal fire brigade. "The buildings are a long way apart, so it's strange that both are on fire."
Work is now continuing on the garden shed. "The remains have to be demolished, the hut itself has collapsed. This is the only way to eliminate the remaining fire hazard," Trojer continues. The police are also on site to determine what led to the fires and whether they are somehow connected.
Suspect arrested
"The EKO Cobra, together with patrols from the Spittal police station, arrested a 42-year-old man," explains Waltraud Dullnigg, LPD Carinthia. "In addition to the Spittal police, the State Criminal Police Office is also on site. Further inquiries and investigations will show whether it really was arson."
