When the emergency services arrived at 07.46, they found smoldering fire in the wall, but no visible flames. People at the scene had emptied a fire extinguisher in an attempt to prevent the spread. There must have been a fire in a stove in the croft last night.
– They have worked with fog spreaders in an attempt to prevent the spread and extinguish the smoldering fire. At 08.13 it was established that a fire had started in the bottom of the hoist, with heavy smoke developing as a result. They have worked with fog spikes and cutting extinguishers. Four units from Odensbacken and Örebro are on site and expect the extinguishing work to last an hour, says Nina Begallo at SOS-Alarm, who is responsible for the Bergslagen rescue region.
No injuries have been reported.
