Fire in the front garden – hedge in flames: Fire brigade has evacuated residential buildings

Date:

Spectacular operation in the Viktring district of Klagenfurt: a hedge was on fire – the adjacent residential building had to be evacuated.

“Apartment fire in Viktring” – that was the alarm message on Tuesday afternoon in Klagenfurt. Fortunately, this information ultimately turned out to be false, even though the dispatched Florianis from the professional fire brigade Klagenfurt and the volunteer fire brigade Viktring-Stein/Neudorf still had their hands full: a meter-high hedge was on fire.

The flames threatened to spread
And the fire threatened to spread to the facade. While emergency services launched firefighting efforts, the adjacent residential building was evacuated as a precaution – and residents were instructed to keep their windows closed. Ultimately, the fire was extinguished relatively quickly. It is still unclear how the fire started.
