27 guests rescued from the balconies of a burning hotel in Tyrol

Six guests were taken to the hospital with suspected smoke poisoning, and another holidaymaker went to the hospital on his own. According to police, one firefighter suffered burns and the four employees in the hotel were uninjured. The cause of the fire and the amount of damage were initially unknown. The fire broke out in a room around 1 a.m. and spread quickly. Due to the heavy smoke, it was impossible for hotel guests to escape via the stairwell.

Guests accommodated in emergency accommodation

While the fire brigade carried out the first extinguishing attacks via the main entrance, the holidaymakers who had fled to the balconies were brought to safety at the same time. In order to ensure that no one was left behind in the building, the security forces established the identities of all those rescued and the fire department searched the fire department. The community organized the accommodation of all guests in emergency accommodation.

According to police, the damage to the building is extensive. A large number of emergency services were on site. The municipal road was closed while the fire was being extinguished.
