Industrial Buildings Shrouded in Smoke

Yesterday afternoon, an incident occurred at an industrial facility on Ernst-Hilker-Straße in Detmold. The incident involved a technical malfunction that caused hot oil to leak out, which was highly explosive.

A team of firefighters, equipped with breathing apparatus, advanced to the site of the incident and swiftly sealed it off. The Fire Department Detmold mobilised 60 firefighters from the Hauptamt, Mitte, and Nord units to tackle the situation.

In response to the incident, the building was heavily ventilated to ensure the safety of the surrounding area. To combat the potential fire, a special foam trailer with a high-performance fan was deployed to the scene, which is stationed in Bad Salzuflen.
