Storm Ignaz brings some work to the fire brigades in the Fürstenfeldbruck district.
There was a fatal accident in Grafrath.
The weir from Groebenzell had to evacuate an S-Bahn.
District - The first autumn storm of the year shook the district through a lot.
Above all, leaf-bearing deciduous trees offered the violent gusts of wind from Tief Ignaz a large area of attack and overturned in many places.
At least one driver was injured.
In Gröbenzell, a S-Bahn stranded after a catenary damage had to be evacuated on the open route.
Woman goes into severe shock
The weather station of the German Meteorological Service near Maisach recorded peak gusts of almost 90 kilometers per hour - this is considered a severe storm.
That was too much for a tree on B 471 near Grafrath.
He crashed into the hood of the BMW of a 23-year-old from the Landsberg district, who was just out there.
According to the Grafrath fire brigade, the woman was slightly injured.
However, she suffered a severe shock and initially walked around apparently disoriented.
According to the police, the woman was lucky.
If the tree had fallen on the passenger compartment of the car, the accident could have been fatal, according to a spokesman.
The 23-year-old's vehicle was no longer ready to drive.
The police estimate the damage at around 10,000 euros.
The helpers removed the fallen tree and picked up leaking supplies.
The BMW was recovered by a towing service.
S-Bahn has to be evacuated
Around 40 passengers on an S-Bahn, whose journey ended abruptly in Groebenzell on the open road, also had to be rescued.
At around 8 a.m., a tree fell on the overhead line near Olching, the railway reports.
As a result, the contact wire no longer had electricity - the train stopped.
The passengers had to wait around two hours before they could be freed by the Groebenzell fire brigade.
Passengers were able to leave the train using a frame that is normally used in truck accidents.
“Everything went smoothly,” says Commander Christian Weirauch.
All rail traffic had to be closed for the evacuation.
According to a railway spokeswoman, only the S-Bahn was affected by the failure of the overhead line.
The fire brigade accompanied the passengers to the next street, where they were transported on by buses.
The fire brigade in Puchheim had to deal with a floating emergency roof.
The large tarpaulin was attached to a building on Münchner Strasse that had caught fire a few weeks ago.
The emergency services reattached the film to the building.
