Fire in Hairdressing Salon - 60,000 Euro Damage - Hainburg salon fire causes €60,000 in damage after heating device malfunctions
A fire broke out in a hair salon in Hainburg, southern Hesse, after a heating device malfunctioned. The blaze caused significant damage, but all occupants escaped without serious injury. Firefighters arrived promptly to bring the situation under control.
The incident began when a heating appliance ignited inside the salon. Thick smoke spread to two neighbouring businesses, though the full extent of their damage remains unclear. Fire crews extinguished the flames before they could grow further.
The salon itself suffered heavy destruction, with the ceiling, floor, and furniture all affected. Early estimates place the total damage at around €60,000. Authorities have since launched an investigation into whether negligence played a role in the fire.
Four people, including the salon owner, evacuated safely. No one required hospital treatment for serious injuries.
The fire has left the salon with costly repairs and disrupted nearby businesses. Investigators will now examine the cause more closely, focusing on potential safety oversights. The incident serves as a reminder of the risks posed by faulty heating equipment.
