Fatal apartment fire in Graz: 81-year-old found dead in bed!

Graz, Österreich - A tragic news from the Andritz district: On the night of Friday there was a devastating fire in an apartment building where an 81-year-old Graz was killed. The fire broke out in the attic, and despite the rapid intervention of the fire brigade, the apartment owner could only be found lifeless in bed, as Kurier.at reported.

The fire brigade's fire brigade were deployed with seven fire trucks and a total of 26 firefighters. Thanks to her quick reaction, an older woman could be saved from her apartment by means of a ladder. This was supplied by the Red Cross on site. Unfortunately, three other people suffered injuries from the fire who have to be examined more closely. The fire brigade found that the fire spread through the apartment door to the staircase, which led to massive damage in the affected apartment. This remains unusable until further notice, since the heat of the fire led to cleaning roses, as Die Presse informed.

Such tragic incidents remind us of how important preventive measures are in fire protection. One of the most common causes of fire is a dangerous work that can also occur in the private environment. Caution should be exercised in particular for hobbies such as soldering or the use of hot glue guns, since the herd of fire can quickly arise here, as the [fire protection center] (https://brandschutz-zentrale.de/brandschutz/ Pmenge-und-wenden/die-5-haeuft-brandurfärzen/). Trained personnel should carry out such work in order to recognize dangers at an early stage and to avoid accidents.

The events in Andritz are an impressive wake -up call for all citizens of the city. Let us pay attention to more security together and deal responsibly with potential fire hazards. In the neighborhood from Atzgersdorf to Inzersdorf - security concerns us all!
