Pictureposting from Bergen, action in the neighborhood.

Some days ago, the street was filled up with firetrucks and other rescue cars,
in the building across the street the fire alarm was going of.

The fire people and police could not make any contact with the person living there. they tried to ring the door but nobody answered.

The solution was to use the lift truck and knock the windows. It actually helped, the person who lives there opened the windows and waved to the fire brigade..

They packed up their stuff and left .

The reason for the alarm, dry coking... Allot of smoke but no fire.

At the end.
