Major fire in Leegebruch: Flames devastate houses, family saved!

On Thursday evening, the community of Leegebruch was rocked by a devastating fire. At 8:48 p.m. the first flames broke out in a residential building and immediately alerted the fire brigade from Leegebruch and Germendorf. The scene of the fire is at the roundabout Eichenallee corner L172, where both columns of fire and thick smoke were visible from afar. Initial findings indicate that the cause of the fire may have come from a showman's business, but official confirmation from the police is still pending. No information regarding the cause of the fire was available at this time and the situation continued to evolve.

A dramatic incident occurred in the early hours of the day when the fire broke out in a semi-detached house and quickly spread to the adjacent building. Fortunately, all residents were rescued in time. Firefighters had to break down a door to save a family and their dog. These measures were necessary to get people to safety before the fire could cause further damage. A total of two residential buildings in the Oberhavel district were seriously damaged, while the statics of the buildings are now being checked.

Evacuations and damage

Thanks to the quick action of the emergency services, something worse was prevented. During the extinguishing efforts, the roof structure of both buildings was removed, a necessary step to stop the flames from spreading further. Checking the statics of the buildings is now of utmost importance before forensic science can begin investigating the cause of the fire. The amount of damage caused remains unclear. Fortunately, there were no injuries, which brought relief to the emergency services and residents.

This fire affected the small town of Leegebruch in the early hours of the morning while the residents were still asleep.
