Cat Rescued in Basement Fire in Hollabrunn

Just a few minutes after the alert, incident commander Markus Pfeifer arrived at the scene. The homeowner informed him about an unclear smoke development in the basement.

The first breathing apparatus team proceeded with a hose line and a thermal imaging camera to fight the fire in the heavily smoke-filled basement. A high-performance fan was used to support, which improved visibility and significantly eased the team's work.
