The fire brigade operation, which involved about twenty emergency services in a small forest in Karres (Imst district) on Saturday morning, has probably been cleared up. According to police, a child may be responsible for the fire. This person reported himself to the police.
Residents reported the fire to the police late in the morning. They discovered thick clouds of smoke in a forest. A little later, the Karres volunteer fire brigade arrived with 20 emergency services and the police helicopter “Libelle”. The fire, which spread over several square meters, was quickly extinguished.
The place is mainly visited by playing children. Also in this case there may have been children before. On Saturday evening, when the fire had long been extinguished, a child reported to the police. Accompanied by her mother, she confessed that she had built a small campfire there.
They extinguished the fire by knocking it out and covered the area with planks. It was not taken into account that the hot ash could ignite.
