A Tyrolean farmer in Kössen narrowly missed a catastrophe on Thursday afternoon. A fire had broken out in his barn, which was full of hay. Worse events were prevented by the rapid intervention of numerous fire brigades and the courageous action of the farmer.
The alarm went off shortly after 2 p.m. When emergency services arrived, heavy smoke was billowing from the shed where the fresh hay was stored. There was not a second to lose. Firefighters managed to get the heated hay out before bigger flames started. This brought the fire under control quickly.
While the Floriani disciples were securing the barn, the farmer rushed into the barn in the same building and brought his sixteen cows and two calves to safety. For example, farmers and fire brigade joined forces to prevent worse things.

The extent of the material damage cannot be quantified at this time. According to the investigation so far, the fire may have started in the barn, in the room where the hay was stored. An investigation is underway into the exact cause of the fire.
