Moosburg / Kirchamper - Brand bei Kirchamper: Emergency forces had to move to the west bank of the Amper on Sunday afternoon. As the police reported, an emergency call came in at 2:45 p.m. A fisherman said that a green area with reeds surrounding it caught fire. On site, the fire department was able to bring the fire under control quickly, preventing the flames from spreading quickly. That was extremely important, because "the reeds are currently very dry and burn like tinder", said the Moosburg police.
