Fire station burns down for the second time

An early morning Sunday fire on January 11th at a fire station caused 2 million dollars in damage and destroyed all six of it’s fire engines.

This isn’t the first time the German fire department has burned down, in 1994 another fire destroyed the building and all of it’s fire engines.

250 fireman from nearby cities had to drive to the Syke fire station to control the blaze.

Due to the quick response of other fire stations only the vehicle bay and all of the fire fighting equipment was destroyed. The kitchen, offices, and lounges were saved.

One local complained that a fire station that can’t even save it’s own fire engines doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.

Police are investigating the blaze to determine the source of the fire at the fire department.
