In a rapid and coordinated response, two fire engines were dispatched to the scene, equipped with firefighting resources, including a flexi-pack—a portable water tank with a spray function. Upon their arrival, the fire crews determined that the fire had been extinguished by other means before their arrival. However, as a precautionary measure, the firefighters used flexi-packs to dampen down any remaining hot spots to ensure there was no risk of re-ignition.
