Erlangen - Tuesday night (November 23), two police patrol vehicles were completely burned out on the premises of a vehicle inspection station in Günther-Scharowsky-Strasse in Erlangen-Bruck *.

Erlangen: Flames cause total write-offs
The fire brigade in Erlangen was able to quickly extinguish the burning cars, but the vehicles could no longer be saved.
The damage to property is estimated at around 90,000 euros.
The two destroyed vehicles of the BMW brand were former emergency vehicles of the Central Franconian police, which had been returned after the leasing contract expired and were therefore parked on the premises of the vehicle inspection center.
