Three fires were reported by the Grand Ducal Fire and Rescue Corps overnight from Wednesday to Thursday, including a blaze that required a major intervention in Wintrange.
At 2.40am on Thursday morning, a fire broke out at a property on Route du Vin, Wintrange. The blaze was severe enough to require multiple teams of fire fighters, dispatched from centres in Schengen, Remich, Moutfort, Mondorf-les-Bains, Canach, Bettembourg, and the capital. According to police, the road was closed as far as house number 23 on Thursday morning to allow for the fire to be extinguished.
The reason for the fire has not yet been uncovered, but police have launched an investigation.
A car caught fire on the A1 motorway from Trier to the capital at around 8.15pm on Wednesday evening. Fire fighters also reported a bin fire in Remich at 9.30pm.
Shortly before 5pm on Wednesday, a motorcyclist was injured in a fall on the N28 between Oetrange and Bous. Finally, two cars collided in Clemency at 9.30am on Thursday morning.
