Overview

• Firefighters said they responded four times on Saturday to reports of a gas-like odor in Wiesbaden.
• In the shopping center, meters detected no leak, with the building lacking a gas connection.
• A search of nearby stores led crews to durian fruit in an Asian supermarket, which they identified as the odor source.
• The fourth alarm at about 22:40 was to a residence where a family's durian filled the apartment and stairwell with the smell.
• Firefighters said the mall's ventilation likely spread the odor through the complex.
