Florianis in action – Five injured after two house fires in Lower Austria

Deployment for the fire brigades in St. Pölten: Two fires claimed the Florianis in the state capital. The bitter conclusion: five people were injured by the flames.

Two fires in St. Pölten caused five injuries: the emergency services were alerted to a single-family home in Spratzern. A fire broke out in the kitchen for a previously unknown cause. The cause of the fire is unclear. Two residents were able to escape outside just in time, but then had to be taken to hospital with injuries. Using heavy breathing apparatus, the fire brigade managed to extinguish the flames. The exact cause of the fire is currently being determined. Due to smoke poisoning, almost at the same time the comrades in St. Georgen were alerted to an extinguishing operation: When they arrived, the flames were already blazing from the first floor of the house. Here, too, three residents were taken to St. Pölten Hospital due to smoke poisoning. Neighbors had looked after her until the emergency services arrived.
