On St. Stephen's Day, an 80-year-old woman and her 27-year-old granddaughter wanted to decorate a weekend house in Weyer for a Christmas party. They also lit a tea light in the conservatory. While they were working, however, the women did not notice that the candle had started a fire. An attentive neighbor (40) rushed to help. 

The tea light in the conservatory was apparently left unattended while the pensioner and her granddaughter were decorating the inside of the house. A sofa was set on fire and the flames spread from there to a wooden window.

A lucky coincidence in the person of the neighbor finally came to the aid of the two initially unsuspecting women. The 40-year-old noticed the fire, immediately ran to the neighbor's house and raised the alarm. Using several portable fire extinguishers, the trio finally managed to contain the flames. 

The Weyer and Kleinreifling fire departments, who were called to help, only had to carry out extinguishing work. The three people involved had to be taken to Waidhofen an der Ybbs Hospital for examination due to the heavy smoke.
