Die Polizei

Petrol ignited 
Shortly after the five people had left the vehicle, they discovered that petrol had leaked and ignited. A canister was on the loading area of the vehicle. "The men were able to extinguish the fire themselves using a fire extinguisher they had with them and made an emergency call," the police said. The 36-year-old driver and a 19-year-old passenger were slightly injured. All other occupants were uninjured. The vehicle sustained considerable damage.

Due to the dense woodland and the steep embankment, it was difficult to recover the vehicle. For this reason, the road had to be closed to all traffic for around two hours. The Kössen fire department, the Kössen mountain rescue team, the ambulance service, an emergency doctor and the police were deployed.
