NÖ: Tractor Burst into Flames in the Middle of the Village

A tractor went up in flames on Saturday in Pürstendorf (municipality of Ladendorf, district of Mistelbach). The trailer combination suddenly came to a stop on the Mistelbacher Straße (B40) in the middle of the town. Upon dismounting, the driver already saw flames shooting out of the engine compartment and alerted the fire department. By the time they arrived, the vehicle was already fully engulfed in flames, they reported.

Four fire departments with 61 members were able to quickly bring the fire under control and prevent the flames from spreading to adjacent buildings. Due to the intense heat, windows and doors of a residential house and a nearby car were damaged. No one was injured. The B40 was closed during the one and a half hour operation.
