Three Killed in Austrian House Fire

Three people were killed in a house fire in Traun, Austria on Dec. 26.

Crews found heavy fire in a single-family dwelling.

Immediately additional engines and one more ladder truck were assigned.

It took a few hours to extinguish the fire to be able to get into the house.

Unfortunately, three victims were found dead.

The reason for the fire might have been a lighted candle that they forgot to extinguish.

The Vol. Fire Dept. of Traun spent about 12 hours on the scene.
