Large alarm in Wörth: Fire successfully deleted in the FVPM clubhouse!

On Sunday evening, the club house of the Pfortz-Maximiliansau (FVPM) football club was added to a major fire that alerted the fire brigade to a comprehensive operation. At around 7 p.m., a caller reported the fire, then the alarm level "B3" was triggered, which meant that more than a fire truck was necessary to combat the fire. This alarm concerned all voluntary fire departments of the city of Wörth and the Hagenbach volunteer fire brigade, such as Rheinpfalz.de reported.

The fire brigade was on site with a large contingent and could quickly find that a fire had broken out in the shelter at the end of the building. The extension burned down completely, while several gas bottles that were stored there were an additional risk. The emergency services removed these dangerous objects and thus prevented the flames from spreading to the main building.

The fire brigade quickly under control the situation during the mission. Even if there were no injuries, considerable damage to property occurred. After extinguishing, charred boards and various metal objects were visible at the fire site. The clubhouse itself was then checked to ensure that there were no other foci.

The emergency services were on site until shortly after 11 p.m. when the last firefighters moved. In addition, the police inspection Wörth and paramedics were present to monitor the situation. Representatives of the FVPM also stayed nearby to check the situation. It is worth noting that several football games took place on the sports field on the day of the fire, which influenced the numbers of the people present.

alarm levels at a glance

According to the information on alarm levels in fire brigade operations, the alarm level "B3" is an insert in which more than one extinguishing train is necessary. This calls for at least six fire engines as well as special tank fire engines and respiratory protection carriers, as described in detail. In this class of fire operations, larger extinguishing work with potentially dangerous materials, as in this case with gas bottles, are often necessary.

In Germany there are numerous statistics on fires and their causes, but no comprehensive and uniform fire statistics. According to Feuertrutz.de , however, more precise data could contribute to improving fire protection. It remains to be hoped that such incidents such as the latest fire at the FVPM Clubhaus can not only be deleted promptly, but also prevented by suitable measures in the future.
