Tyrol's Floriani firefighters had to respond to two incidents on Thursday. Smoke developed in a telephone system in Ramsau in Zillertal. In Kleinstockach (Reutte district), an incorrectly lit stove was the reason for the alarm.

The first call-out came at around 3.45 pm in Ramsau. A telephone system in a catering business had developed heavy smoke. The cause was a defective circuit board.

Using breathing protection, the fire department was able to prevent a further outbreak of fire. The damage to property was probably minor.

When the neighbor saw flames rising from the chimney, she called the fire department.
