Even days after the explosion in Baumgarten (Burgenland), the incident is still a topic of conversation in the community. The seriously injured 60-year-old was no stranger to Baumgarten.
A local inspection revealed that the 60-year-old, who was found unconscious in his apartment, was at odds with a neighbor. There were always fights about noise pollution and the case went to court several times.
Curious about gas bottles
It is said that not much came of it. After the reports and the photos, many are wondering how the explosion could have happened in the first place. “Who has gas bottles in the apartment? And why was one open? This is a fire hazard. Did he want to commit suicide?” asks a man.
More than 100,000 euros damage
It could have been much worse if the gas bottle had exploded, he is convinced. “Then there would have been deaths.” The damage is more than 100,000 euros. The 60-year-old doesn’t seem to have been particularly popular in the city. “It’s best to lock it,” says an angry resident. Postscript: “I’m sure the police will clarify things soon.”
