Well, this is a dramatic story. A couple of hours ago one of the people that work here in one of the apartments not far away from here, rang on my door. The clock was past 1 am, so I wondered why someone rang so late.
It showed up that the garage and shed only 30 meters away from there I live was in flames! The fire reached almost 10 meters up, and I had to evacuate in case the fire would spread. The smoke from the flames was very thick.
I could hear explosions coming from the cars that was in the garage, and both garage and shed took not many minutes to burn completely down (well, there is some left of the shed).
Both fire department and police came quickly on the scene, and the police put up those bands you see in CSI around the place after the fire had been contained, and they believe a pyroman (sp?) caused the fire.
Both the firemen and the police are still here, securing the place and making sure it does not blase up again. Though it was safe to get back in now. And fortunately no apartments were taken by the fire, though one was engulfed in smoke for a while due to the wind (good thing it weren't much wind).
