Helmstedt is a town. - School blaze triggers fire alarm activation

After the troops gained entry to the structure, they noted smoke development indoors and the fire alarm system signaled several active alarms. A team entered the building equipped with breathing gear and a hose, elevating the alert level to summon more personnel on site.

Upon further investigation, they discovered a fire on the first floor in a plaster room where waste was burning. The blaze was quickly put out, allowing the extra alerted deployment troops to withdraw. The THW (Technical Disaster Control) was subsequently called in to secure the property and seal off the access they had created.

The fire departments from Helmstedt, Emmerstedt, Barmke, and Grasleben, as well as the THW Helmstedt, participated in the response. The operation spanned approximately 1.5 hours, with Marvin Neher serving as the incident commander.
