Large smoke column – apartment fire in Vienna spreads to the roof

Date:

A fire broke out in an apartment in Vienna-Floridsdorf on Tuesday afternoon. As the spokesman for the Vienna Professional Fire Service, Gerald Schimpf, explained, the fire spread from a room fire to the roof of the building – the resulting column of smoke was clearly visible from afar.

For example, the fire broke out in a room on the top floor of a residential building on Jedleseer Strasse around 12 noon. Emergency services quickly extinguished the flames in the area, but were unable to prevent them from spreading to the roof structure, explains Schimpf.
