Stralsund: - Apartment building blaze forces evacuation of 6 occupants.

The emergency services, including the professional firefighters and the Stralsund volunteer fire team, cleared out the top two floors and put out the flames. Six inhabitants of the building were saved from their homes; they were 4, 28, 31, 47, and 65 years old. Five of them were sent to the Helios Clinic in Stralsund since they were thought to have inhaled smoke.

The Stralsund criminal investigators are now probing the ignition of the fire and have enlisted a fire expert. The probe is still ongoing. The total damage has been estimated at least $50,000. The upper-floor apartments are now uninhabitable. The property owner was on scene and organised lodgings for those forced to leave their homes.

A total of 26 firefighters -- half of which were from the Stralsund professional and the other half from the volunteer fire team -- an emergency ambulance, three ambulances, and three police radio units from Stralsund headquarters were called in for this incident.
