In the heart of Diepholz district, an unexpected drama unfolded at a house fire in Twistringen. At least three individuals ended up injured: a woman battling severe burns, a man grappling with severe smoke inhalation, and another man who sustained minor injuries.
By late Saturday evening, a police patrol stumbled upon smoke in the city center. The situation quickly escalated, with an anxious crowd gathering to aid residents trying to escape the blaze by jumping from the window of the apartment building's extension. According to police spokesperson, the fire department arrived promptly and managed to rescue all residents safely from the burning building.
The inhabited extension of the apartment building is currently deemed uninhabitable due to the extensive fire damage. With less than two weeks to Christmas, around two dozen individuals were left scrambling for alternative accommodations. The police haven't yet disclosed any details regarding the fire's cause or the extent of the damage .
Curiously, this unfortunate incident in Twistringen wasn't an isolated incident. On the same fateful night, numerous houses in Diepholz district were also engulfed in flames. Though fortunately, no fatalities were reported, the woman with severe burns was a resident of Lower Saxony. As authorities probe into the origin of all these fires, they are heedful to prevent any potential future incidents.
