Delightful fire in Schönwalde-glien: 800,000 euros damage!

During the night to today there was a devastating fire in a commercial area in Schönwalde-Glien, which largely destroyed the vehicle fleet of a logistics company. As reported Coolis.de, a total of 14 disused delivery vans that have been in use for Amazon since 2011. The fire brigade was able to prevent the fire from spreading to neighboring warehouses quickly, but the property damage is estimated to be around 800,000 euros.

The extinguishing work, in which around 50 firefighters were involved, were challenging due to the violent explosions of tires and engines. Firefighter Sven Kraatz described the scenery as dramatic and emphasized the complexity of the mission. The fire remained unnoticed for a long time and spread quickly, so that the emergency services had to do everything to avert an even greater disaster. The heat effects could also be seen on vehicles that were not on fire.

Investigations run

The mayor of Schönwalde-Glien was shocked by the incident and expressed the suspicion of a possible arson attack. The police have started an investigation into arson, with investigators also considering political motives. Another incident in the same night in Schönweide, in which 23 vehicles were affected, leaves questions open and fueled speculation about a series of arson. There is a letter of confession that has not yet been officially confirmed.

The fires throw a light on the challenges in fire protection. According to extensive statistics on fire protection in Germany, which Feuertrutz.de provides available, the exact recording and analysis of causes of fire remains of great importance. A complete recording could not only contribute to the clarification of such cases, but also to improve prevention and protection.

In this tense situation, it remains to be seen which further information the police and the criminal investigators will bring to light. The incident in Schönwalde-Glien is therefore not only the focus of the public, but also in a larger context that affects the collateral of our logistics infrastructure.
