According to the fire brigade spokesman, the scrap mountains were dismantled to facilitate the extinguishing work. But there is still embers and great heat, it said. Support came from the fire brigade from Ludwigshafen. You would have brought a 60 -meter -high telescopic crane with you that made it possible to extinguish from the height.
The cause of the fire was initially unclear, but specialists from the police would have to commit the place of fire. The amount of damage was not yet estimated, said the city’s spokesman. Since the metal scrap was stored in the open air, no larger building damage can be expected.
