A residential house burned in Gudžiūnai over the weekend.
The General Emergency Center received the report on Saturday at 10:24 AM. It was informed that a one-story brick residential house with an attic was burning with open flames on Gumbinė Street.
Medical personnel were called to the scene, but the woman refused their assistance.
Firefighters who arrived at the scene found that one room in the house was heavily smoke-filled, and a bed was smoldering inside. The fire was relatively quickly contained and extinguished.
The fire caused damage to the residential property. The room’s windows shattered from the heat, the bed was burned, and the walls were smoked. To protect the remaining property, firefighters carried household items, a gas stove, and electrical appliances outside.
During the fire damage elimination, part of the house’s ceiling was dismantled, soaked with water, and the straw in the ceiling was dug out to remove possible fire sources.
The resident of the house was unharmed during the incident. Although medical personnel were called to the scene, the woman refused their help.
According to the Kaunas Fire and Rescue Department, there was no autonomous smoke detector in the house. The causes and circumstances of the fire are currently under investigation.
