In Nuremberg, the ignition of two children had far-reaching consequences: the wooden hut of a sports club caught fire and burned down.
Now the police are investigating.
Nuremberg – At around 11.45 a.m. on Saturday, May 21, a witness called the emergency services and reported that there was a fire on the grounds of the ASC Boxdorf sports facility on “Am Weiher” street in Nuremberg.
It was a wooden hut.
The fire brigade managed to put out the fire – but the hut itself burned down completely.
