During the night to Saturday, a parked car in St. Pölten went up in flames, a police spokesperson confirmed a report by ORF Lower Austria (online).
The summoned police officers tried in vain to fight the fire with a handheld fire extinguisher. By the time the fire department arrived, the car was already fully ablaze. No one was injured.
The investigation into the cause of the fire is not yet complete, however, arson is suspected, the police announced on Saturday in response to an APA inquiry. In recent months, there have been several nocturnal car fires in St. Pölten, caused by as yet unknown arsonists.
