Hamburg (dpa / lno) - In a fire in a residential accommodation for refugees in Hamburg-Billstedt, the fire brigade rescued a person.

According to current knowledge, there are no injuries, said a fire department spokesman on Sunday evening.

The fire has now been extinguished - but the post-extinguishing work would still take hours.

The fire brigade was alerted to the fire in a two-story wooden house on Sunday evening.

When the rescue workers arrived, several residents had already escaped outside.

According to the information, the wooden house burned to its full extent.

It was a large-scale operation for the fire brigade - they were on site with 60 emergency services.
