On Thursday morning we drove to the compressor fire in the compound feed factory in Vysoké Mýto. Before the arrival of the units, the factory employees tried to destroy the fire. They used powder and snow machines for this. Firefighters came under control within 15 minutes of reporting the incident to the fire brigade’s operations and information center. “Seven people were evacuated from the building before our arrival. After the fire was liquidated, we also conducted a survey with a thermal imager to see if there were hidden foci somewhere, “says the commander of the nprap team. Miloslav Havlík from Vysoké Mýto station. The incident went without injury. The fire did not spread to the wooden ceiling structures, for example, and the property in the amount of 20 million crowns was saved. The damage was preliminarily estimated at 200 thousand crowns. The cause of the fire is still being investigated. We intervened on the spot together with the HZS unit from the Vysoké Mýto station and the Iveco Czech Republic a. s.
