After the fire in several warehouses in Berlin-Tegel, a fire commissioner began the investigation. An investigation into how the fire started is currently underway, a police spokesman said Monday.
The fire brigade was still busy with the remaining fire and cleanup work on Monday morning. A spokesman for firefighters said the operation would continue until noon.
In the case of a fire in Berlin-Tegel, three warehouses were completely burned down, four more were partially affected. On Flohrstrasse Sunday, several warehouses caught fire in a mainly commercial area, as a fire department spokesperson said. A dark cloud of smoke could be seen far away, people were not in danger.
The fire brigade deployed around 100 people at night. The airport fire brigade also rushed to help with a large tanker truck. Emergency forces began to withdraw early Monday morning. Two fire trucks remained on site for the fire station, the fire department said. The fire was extinguished for the moment, but the situation was still unclear.
Smoke cloud visible from afar
The surrounding streets in the Flohrstrasse area were closed due to extinction work. The fire brigade attempted to extinguish the fire on several sides and protect areas not yet covered. Explosive noises were heard over and over again.
According to the fire department, these could come from propane gas bottles that couldn’t withstand the heat. At night, three warehouses with a total area of 10,000 square meters, almost a soccer field and a half, completely burned down.
Large fire operations
The fire department warned on Twitter to avoid the affected area near the airport. “Drive around the affected area over a wide area. Close windows and doors and turn off ventilation and air conditioning. Don’t go into a smoke-filled room, “he said.
