A 50-YR.-OLD FIREFIGHTER FROM HINTERSEE, GERMANY, died on the fireground Tuesday evening when he suddenly dropped. His colleagues were there with him along with a medical unit, but they were unable to revive him.

The Hintersee Fire Brigade, along with 4 other departments, was working a fire in a duplex house that was reported at 10 pm and kept the firefighters busy through most of the night. The firefighters had saved one person from the burning building earlier where the eventual damages exceeded 100-thousand Euros.
The unidentified firefighter who perished had been a member of the 15-member department for 25 years and his sudden loss has stricken the brigade members particularly hard.
The Nordkurier has the STORY.
If any further information is released, we will update this posting.
