Report
On Monday morning, the police reported that a smoke alarm had gone off at a special-purpose facility in Lohnsfeld. The fire departments from Lohnsfeld, Wartenberg-Rohrbach, and Winnweiler were then dispatched to the scene.
Although neither fire nor smoke was initially detected, the building was evacuated as a safety precaution. Interviews with those present revealed that the smoke detector had gone off multiple times. A thorough search of the building and the surrounding area was conducted, but nothing was found. Since it had to be assumed that the alarm had been triggered by a malfunction, the smoke detector was subsequently replaced. The fire department was able to conclude its operation promptly.
