An estimated 50,000 euros in damage occurred in a fire on Friday evening in a Einhaushof on Hauptstrasse in Unterzeitlbach.
Unterzeitlbach - The fire broke out in a garage used as a storage room and spread to an apartment above.
It is thanks to the farm owner that the two tenants were able to escape outside in good time.
He was upstairs when he noticed the smell of burning.
He knocked on the window of his tenants who were in the shower or in bed.
Together they tried unsuccessfully to smother the fire in the garage with fire extinguishers.
When the fire brigade, which was alerted at the same time, arrived, the garage was already in full fire.
The fire fighting and, above all, the follow-up control were very complex, said Josef Schweighart, spokesman for the Altomünsterer Wehr.
The fire brigades from Altomünster, Unterzeitlbach, Markt Indersdorf, Eisenhofen, Kleinberghofen and Dachau were in action.
According to the police, after initial investigations, a technical defect can be assumed to be the cause of the fire; there is no evidence of arson.

The consequences for the tenant couple are particularly bitter.
Adam P. (50) and Renata W. (50) had completely renovated the apartment a week earlier, including a new kitchen.
The apartment is no longer habitable.
The couple, an employee of a gardening and landscaping company and an office worker, are left with nothing.
The two were temporarily taken in by his boss, a THW member, in the guest room and are now desperately looking for a small apartment in the Dachau district.
