Overview
- Multiple emergency calls on Friday, 7 August 2026 prompted police and the volunteer fire department to respond, and the fire alarm was logged at about 18:04.
- Crews found visible flames and smoke, firefighters extinguished the blaze, police secured the scene, and no one was injured.
- Authorities estimate the damage at several hundred thousand euros but say it is still unclear how much of that loss is structural versus burned inventory.
- Photos and videos of the charred store circulated online, and both the fire department and the retailer confirmed the footage showed a real fire rather than an AI-generated clip.
- Investigators continue to examine the cause and the full extent of damage, with results likely to affect cleanup, temporary closure and insurance payouts for the store.
