Carbon monoxide in apartment building: All residents evacuated
It could have ended badly: Carbon monoxide leaked from a residential complex in Jenbach (Tyrolean district of Schwaz) on Saturday. A janitor noticed that something was wrong and alerted the fire department. This meant that action could be taken in good time.
At around 4.30 pm, the 47-year-old janitor of the residential complex noticed smoke in a cellar compartment and alerted the fire department. The fire brigade arrived with breathing apparatus and quickly established that no fire had broken out. Instead, carbon monoxide had escaped from a chimney pipe and had spread throughout the apartment complex.
House evacuated and ventilated
The residents of the building were then evacuated while the fire department began to ventilate the complex using special equipment. According to the police, the residents were able to return to the house at around 6.15 pm. Fortunately, no one was injured.
In addition to 15 firefighters, paramedics, a gas technician and the police were also deployed.
