Industrial zone of Schlavenhorst in Bocholt faces concern over the use of harmful substances in operations
At 08:00 today, the Bocholt Fire Department responded to an emergency call at a logistics company located in the Schlavenhorst industrial area. Upon arrival, an unknown liquid was leaking from a truck carrying hazardous materials.
To handle the situation, firefighters from Rhede provided trained personnel to assist with chemical protection suits. The Bocholt Fire Department's drone was also deployed to survey the scene.
