Fire at Essen-Huttrop Bus Depot Extinguished by Fire Department
On September 8, 2024, at 08:43 AM, several callers reported a smoke emission from a parked tour bus at Hovescheidstraße in Essen-Huttrop to the fire department's control center. Upon arrival, flames were already shooting out of the engine compartment at the rear of the smoky bus.
The Essen fire department promptly dispatched several emergency vehicles to the reported incident. The fire department operated with a fire engine from the professional fire brigade for approximately an hour. Simultaneously, a team carried out fire-fighting with a handheld hose reel.
Several teams in breathing apparatus searched the bus for any potential occupants. Fortunately, no people were found inside the bus during the person search. However, a sleeping bag was found on the back seat of the smoky bus interior, suggesting that people might have been in the bus.
After about 45 minutes, the fire was extinguished, and the incident commander handed over the incident site to the criminal police for investigation into the cause of the fire. The volunteer fire brigade of Essen-Steele was also present at the scene.
No further information was provided about the condition of the bus after the fire was extinguished. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation by the criminal police.
