The fire broke out early Wednesday morning at the Stadtallendorf fire station in Hesse and destroyed, among other things, the equipment hall and almost a dozen emergency vehicles, German news agency dpa reported.
Local officials told dpa that no fire alarm system was installed in the building because experts had considered it not necessary — much to the astonishment of many observers now that the station has burned down.
德國1座未裝火災警報系統的新消防局被大火燒毀
德國1座在大火中被毀的全新消防局,並未安裝火災警報系統,當地媒體週四報導。
據德國新聞社報導,這起火災週三清晨發生在黑森邦施塔特塔倫多夫消防局,燒毀了該局裝備室和將近12輛消防緊急救援車輛等多項設施。
當地官員向德新社表示,該棟建築物並未安裝火災警報系統,因為專家認為沒有必要—這一點在消防局被大火燒毀後,令許多關注此事的人震驚。
當地媒體報導,這座消防局啟用還不到1年。
