Allershausen

- Numerous fire brigades and rescue workers moved out to the industrial area in the west of Allershausen on Friday morning: A Penny supermarket has been in full fire there since around 7.45 a.m.

The smoke development was so enormous in the meantime that it became pitch dark in some districts of the Ampertal community.

As our reporter reported on site, eyewitnesses first noticed smoke in a white delivery van that was parked directly under the supermarket canopy.

Then there should have been at least one explosion - whereupon the flames spread to the Penny building and spread across the entire structure.

Numerous fire fighters from the region are now on duty and are fighting the major fire.

The neighboring gas station has not yet been affected.
