A shitshow at a waste-processing dump in Kirchheim unter Teck (Esslinging region) has left authorities scrambling to assess damages potentially reaching hundreds of thousands of euros. Miraculously, no one ended up getting hurt, as confirmed by law enforcement.

During a routine patrol, officers spotted flames, alerted the 911 operators, and the firefighters arrived on the scene to face a smoldering conveyor belt. The blaze soon engulfed a pile of sawdust and other equipment, according to the report.

As of noon, firefighters were still battling the blaze. The powers that be are currently piecing together the event's origins.

Remarkably, the firefighters saved a nearby teak church, a cherished community gathering place, from going up in smoke. Despite the flames, the teak church under Kirchheim unter Teck escaped unscathed.
