Alarm Tripled at FW Alpen on a Wednesday Night
Alpen's Busy Fire Night
Enjoying a stormy Wednesday evening, the fire department in the charming town of Alpen had a series of exciting events to handle.
Firstly, at 7:03 PM, stormy weather hit hard, prompting an emergency call labeled "H1 storm damage" on Sonsbecker Straße. Teams from Alpen and Veen sprang into action, dealing with a hanging telephone pole loaded with live wires, blocking the road at the intersection with Holländer Straße. The police kept things under control until the local network operator arrived to sort out the mess.
Before they could catch their breath, the team was called again at 9:33 PM on Hoerstgener Weg, with the call code "H2Y person in apartment". Utilizing their trusty turntable ladder, the emergency services gained access to the apartment, forcefully opening the door from within. Once inside, they successfully extracted the person, quickly passing them onto the rescue service.
As the night culminated, around 9:39 PM, another "H1 storm damage" call came through for units from Alpen and Veen on Holländer Straße. Since the network operator hadn't shown up yet to address the initial telephone pole issue, the firefighters spared no effort, securing the pole to prevent further chaos.
