Alarming forest fires in Hoyerswerda: Fire brigade in constant operation!
A worrying event is causing a stir in Hoyerswerda: on Saturday, October 21st, the local fire brigade had to respond to two forest fires. The first fire started shortly after 10:35 a.m. in the area of Street D and covered an area of around 200 square meters. Fortunately, the fire department was able to quickly bring the fire under control before any major damage was caused. The material damage amounts to around 1,500 euros, as Sächsische.de reports.
Typically, such incidents are thought to be due to carelessness. And it is precisely for this reason that the police are now investigating suspicions of negligent arson. A second fire was then discovered at around 1.30 p.m. near the first fire site on the B96. This time around 100 square meters of forest floor burned. Here too, the Hoyerswerda fire brigade, particularly the Old Town fire engine, were quickly on the scene and were able to extinguish the fire quickly, with the property damage estimated at around 1,000 euros. It is currently unclear whether there is a connection between the two fires.
