Large-scale operation by the fire department, ambulance service and disaster control in Vienna. According to information from the "Krone" newspaper, there was a fire in the student residence "Haus Dr. Schärf" in the 20th district.

The emergency services were on the scene with numerous vehicles at around 5.30 p.m., and the area around the dormitory (Lorenz-Müller-Gasse) was cordoned off, according to reporters. However, there were no injuries, they warned.

Nevertheless, the large-scale operation caused quite a stir in the surrounding area. In the event of fires in student residences, the fire department always issues a level 2 alert - with a correspondingly large number of vehicles.

The alert level had been reduced in the meantime and the affected rooms were still being "cleared of smoke" - by 6 p.m. the spook was over again.

Students were escorted outside the building and had to wait on the other side of the street.

20 people had to leave the building or were "assisted" in doing so - because they did not want to leave, according to the emergency services. The fire was extinguished with an extinguishing line using breathing apparatus, the cause of the fire is unclear.
