Alarm in Vösendorf: In the early morning hours the outer wall collapsed, exposing the gas, water and electricity pipes! Mayor Hannes Koza quickly arranged for emergency housing for the stricken, shocked pensioner. Members of the fire department and community workers acted as a “relocation crew.”
An elderly woman from Vösendorf in the Mödling district woke up more than rudely on Friday morning to a powerful thunderous reverberation: before 7 a.m. the outer wall broke loose and fell into the construction pit next to it. Because this was also the bedroom wall, the woman was suddenly outside.
The operation was dangerous for the Vösendorf fire brigade, not only because the house was in acute danger of collapse due to the element breaking loose, but also because gas, water and electricity pipes were exposed and had to be interrupted immediately. The Florianis then worked closely with structural engineers and the building authorities to protect the house from collapse, which was successful. They also requested Pölz material from the Vienna fire brigade. Because the old house is partially sunken and has major cracks, it is not believed to be salvageable.
Mayor Hannes Koza quickly organized an emergency apartment for the woman. That morning, Florianis and community workers became involved as ‘furniture packers’ and the shocked victim was able to move. “Fortunately the woman was not injured, it could have ended very differently,” said Koza with relief. The house was attached to a second one, which had been torn away.
