What was planned as a harmless work assignment ended on Monday afternoon at the Auer cemetery in a real fire brigade operation.
Au/Hallertau
- An employee of the municipal building yard probably meant too well: during beautification work in the rear part of the new Auer cemetery on Kohlstattstraße, only the weeds were to be removed with a burner on Monday afternoon.
But suddenly a neighboring hedge on the side of the road caught fire.
The fire progressed rapidly, so that eight meters of the row of plants was affected in no time.
(By the way: everything from the region is now also available in our regular Freising newsletter.)
However, thanks to quick help from the Auer fire brigade, the flames could be kept within limits, with sufficient water and respiratory protection, the Florian disciples prevented further spread.
Although one could see the "heat wave" from the plants on the neighboring burial sites, otherwise the property damage remained as a result of a burnt-down hedge.
And with the charred wood, which the building yard now has to take care of.
