Who set fire to a school in St. Johann in Tirol (Kitzbühel district) on Monday evening? The police are still in the dark about this question. Fires had been set in several places in the educational institution. There is no doubt that it was arson.
Shortly before 9 p.m. on Monday, the St. Johann in Tirol fire brigade was alerted. A pen on a classroom table and an adjacent bulletin board caught fire. The fire was extinguished by the housekeepers and teachers present and the boarding school students were brought outside by the supervisors. Matches were secured.
Fire in the basement, things burned down in the open
When the emergency services were still looking for possible embers with thermal imaging cameras, other fire alarms suddenly went off. “In the basement, objects burned under a shoe dryer, to which the flames had already spread,” said the fire brigade. Several burnt objects were also found outside, according to police.
“Forensic investigation completed”
There is no doubt that the fires have been lit. Only who was up to mischief at school is still completely unclear. Securing evidence has been completed for the time being, police told the APA on Wednesday. Test results should be available in the coming days.
Until then, the case remains unsolved. Unless things get too hot for the perpetrators – and they make a confession beforehand.
