Original BBQ
With a large ladder and a tank truck, teams from the Aubange rescue zone, reinforced by those from Arlon and Etalle, very quickly intervened to control the flames but ” unfortunately, nothing remains of the two verandas, those on the ground floor and upstairs, everything is charred, the upstairs apartment can no longer be occupied “says Pascal Mathieu, the lieutenant officer directing the rescue operations. A dog was able to be saved, but not the jackets and personal effects (mobile phone, license, cards) of the bosses of the chip shop. The neighboring adjoining buildings did not have been affected.
The fire also mobilized several teams from the south-Luxembourg police zone under the direction of Commissioner Hugues Josten to limit access to the streets located in the heart of the village. While special precautions during the extinguishing operations were necessary due to the presence of gas cylinders, many residents attended the scene.
The mayor of Messancy, Roger Kirsch, and the president of the CPAS, Christian Biren, have been notified to put in place a rehousing solution for the affected family.
According to initial findings, nothing suggests a voluntary act, it would seem that the implementation of a barbecue on the terrace of the family living in the apartment is at the origin of the disaster “. The impressive flames of this violent fire were visible far and wide. The business will be closed for a certain period.
