This family from Lens-sur-Geer can thank the TEC driver who, when he passed around 7:30 p.m., alerted them to a fire in their attic. The Hesbaye emergency zone quickly went to the scene, rue des Fontaines. “We needed to intervene with the pumper truck and the ladder truck. At 10 p.m., everything was under control.” The cause of the fire is still unknown, but it appears that it started from from an old wooden beam. The ground floor and first floor were not affected by the fire. However, the house remains temporarily uninhabitable as explained by Jean-Marc Daerden, mayor of Oreye. “The family is currently unable to return home because the house no longer has electricity. In addition, the large quantity of water used has caused damage. Not to mention the vapors from the fire.”
The couple and their two children had to find a solution quickly. “We have two transit accommodations for this type of emergency situation but they are already occupied. In these cases, we offer the hotel, the costs of which are covered by the insurance. But the family preferred to go with one of their loved ones. We will still try to find a solution. I will try to see if the Hesbaye Solidarity Home (Editor’s note: former Waremmian Home) does not have a house available”, concludes the mayor.
