Accident on St. Stephen's Day
80-year-old woman died in apartment fire
An apartment fire broke out in the center of Güssing on Thursday evening. All help came too late for a single 80-year-old woman. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
At around 9 pm on St. Stephen's Day, a neighbor noticed the smell of burning coming from one of the apartments in the stairwell of a residential complex in Güssing. He immediately informed the police. A member of the Güssing town fire department living opposite also informed his comrades immediately and confirmed the fire.
Shortly after arriving, the firefighters began fighting the fire and searching for people in the building using heavy breathing apparatus. An 80-year-old woman was quickly located and brought outside. Despite immediate resuscitation measures, her life could not be saved.
A total of four breathing apparatus teams from the fire department were deployed to bring the fire under control. Eight other people were also evacuated from the building. One firefighter was slightly injured during the extinguishing work. In addition to the fire department, the Red Cross, the police and fire investigators were also on site. Investigations into the cause of the fire are still ongoing. The Güssing fire department was deployed with 35 members and all vehicles.
