Two unidentified young people are said to have set fire to a room in an empty building in Arnoldstein (Carinthia). Police are now asking for information from the public.
Around 9 p.m., witnesses in Arnoldstein saw how two previously unknown fire devils set fire to an empty building and eventually fled. The observers immediately alerted the emergency services. When four fire brigades finally arrived, the ground floor was already completely on fire.
The Florianis on duty finally managed to get the flames under control, but the damage caused was still enormous. Based on the witness statements and clear evidence of arson, investigators from the Carinthian Police were called in.
Perpetrators between 14 and 16 years old
Who is now dependent on the public’s help and is launching a call for witnesses: The still unknown perpetrators are said to be two young people between the ages of 14 and 16 – one noticeably smaller than his accomplice.
If you have information about the arsonists, you can contact the National Criminal Investigation Department on 059133/203333.
Pram set on fire out of boredom
Meanwhile, officials have already reported success in the fire at a youth center in Greifenburg. As reported, a fire broke out in a storage room on the ground floor. After the smoke detectors sounded the alarm, the residents were able to be removed from the home in time by the caregivers.
As it turned out during the investigation by fire investigators from the National Criminal Investigation Department, a fire devil was also at work in this case. It concerned a minor who has now been identified, who, according to his own statement, had set fire to a stroller out of boredom.
