Firefighting operation: Senior seriously injured in roof truss fire in Stuttgart

A 93-year-old man was seriously injured in a roof fire in Stuttgart. Emergency services took him unconscious from the burning attic apartment and took him to the hospital, a police spokesman said. When firefighters arrived, flames were erupting from a window. The emergency services could not prevent it from spreading to other parts of the house, so that other apartments were no longer habitable at first. According to the police spokesman, the damage is around 700,000 euros.

The three other residents of the house were unharmed and, according to the police, were accommodated in hotels. Falling parts also damaged parked cars in the fire early on Saturday morning. The investigation into the cause of the fire initially continued.
