8 meter fall threatened
On the spot, the officials were already expected by several passers-by. A 92-year-old man lay exhausted on the roof of a two-storey apartment building and threatened to fall eight meters. Police officers immediately climbed through a skylight and prevented the pensioner from slipping until firefighters arrived.
Together, the emergency services were able to rescue the 92-year-old through a roof hatch. The senior said he wanted to remove a chimney cap but ran out of power. The fire brigades Hart, Leonding, Axberg and Alkoven were deployed with eight vehicles and about 35 men.
