A distressing incident took place at a retirement home in the Upper Palatinate early on Tuesday. A fire broke out in a resident's room at the monastery of Strahlfeld in Roding (Cham district), causing mockery and chaos. Fortunately, emergency services moved swiftly, evacuating all 58 residents and a firefighter to safety. Ten individuals were later discovered to have suffered minor smoke inhalation.
The injured individuals were transported to the hospital, and initial assessments suggest approximately 400,000 euros worth of damage due to both the flames themselves and the extensive smoke damage. As of now, the exact cause of the fire remains a mystery. The local authorities have launched an investigation to uncover the truth.
