[Gemeinde Löffingen;]

On January 24th, 2021, around 6:35 a.m., the engine of the gritting silo of a clearing vehicle caught fire on the district road between Seppenhofen and Bachheim. It is thanks to the quick reaction of the driver that the flames were prevented from spreading to the truck. This unloaded the salt silo until the fire brigade arrived. The fire brigade from Löffingen called to the scene of the fire was able to quickly bring the fire under control. It is assumed that a technical defect in the motor of the salt spreader was the cause of the fire. The 53-year-old driver got away with the horror.
