A large group of emergency services had to move out in Munich-Thalkirchen because of breathing difficulties in many children.
The police are investigating.
Munich – On Wednesday morning (May 25) there was a large contingent of emergency services on Plinganserstrasse in Munich-Thalkirchen.
As reported by the Munich fire brigade, "so many children with complaints reported in a short time during a medical deployment of an ambulance by the Johanniter", so that the large squad had to move up.
An emergency call had previously been received that there was “difficulty breathing” in a school.
"When the rescue service personnel at the scene attended to the caretaker of the school, more and more students complained about
comparable complaints," the mission report continues.

As a result, more rescue equipment and the Munich fire brigade were requested.
The fire brigade forces carried out several measurements under the direction of the environmental service and ventilated the affected area.
However, even before the fire brigade arrived, any pollutants had been diluted so much by cleaning measures that no precise cause could be identified.
All affected persons with complaints were examined on site.
25 children have come to Munich hospitals for safety and further examinations.
The police have started investigating the cause.
