Fire spreads to house
Fire in barbecue triggered night-time operation
The Hopfgarten im Brixental volunteer fire department (Kitzbühel district) had to deal with a night-time fire on Sunday night! A fire broke out in a barbecue, which had already spread to the house.
The incident was triggered by a 34-year-old local man who was heating a built-in barbecue in a wooden extension to the house at around 9 pm. Shortly before 4 a.m., his wife (37) noticed the smell of burning and noticed the smoke.
She alerted the emergency services and kept the swelling fire under control with a garden hose. The fire had already spread to the house and the roof truss of the extension. The woman was able to extinguish the fire herself. No one was injured.
The exact cause of the fire will be investigated on Sunday. The damage to property is currently still unknown. A total of 40 firefighters from the Hopfgarten volunteer fire department, the ambulance service and the police were deployed.
