Smoke Pillar at Garage Fire - Air Traffic Control Informed - Massive garage fire near Frankfurt Airport sparks investigation into cause
A garage fire in Offenbach, near Frankfurt Airport, caused significant damage and prompted German air traffic control to be alerted. The blaze, which occurred yesterday, destroyed three garages, three motorcycles, a car, and a quad bike, resulting in an estimated €120,000 worth of damage. Firefighters swiftly responded and managed to contain the fire, preventing it from spreading to a nearby residential building. Investigators are now working to determine the cause of the fire. Early leads suggest that a resident may have been repairing a motorcycle before the flames started. A 35-year-old Czech national, whose name was not mentioned in the police report, is believed to be linked to the repairs. The proximity of the fire to Frankfurt Airport's flight path led to German air traffic control being notified. The fire, which caused substantial damage to vehicles and property, is still under investigation. The quick response of firefighters prevented further potential damage to nearby residential buildings. The cause of the fire and the exact involvement of the Czech national remain to be determined.
