The fire was reported to the fire brigade at 1.15 p.m. An hour later, the firefighters were still busy fighting the flames, according to spokesman Marcel van Westendorp: “They are extinguishing from the outside.. because from the inside it is still too dangerous for the moment.” The Ruige Weide is closed to traffic in both directions so that the emergency services can do their work.
