Separate Fires in Bavaria and Stuttgart Cause Six-Figure Damage and Smoke Injuries

Authorities have opened cause investigations following rooftop‑solar complications in Bavaria, with a precautionary power cut in Stuttgart.

Overview

  • Overnight in Neuhaus am Inn, the roof of a multi-family house burned; eight residents were rescued unharmed and damage was estimated in the mid six figures.
  • Fire crews first removed a photovoltaic system from the Neuhaus roof, a step that prolonged the operation.
  • In Mallersdorf-Pfaffenberg, a machine hall caught fire; the 76-year-old owner moved some equipment outside, yet losses reached the low six figures with no injuries reported.
  • In Stuttgart-Mitte on Thursday evening, a cellar fire filled a stairwell with smoke; it was extinguished in about 20 minutes and nine people suffered minor smoke inhalation.
  • The energy provider temporarily cut electricity to the Stuttgart building, which was ventilated before residents returned, and cause investigations are ongoing in all cases.
