It was not yet 11 p.m. but the young man was already asleep.
Awakened by the fumes emanating from his fire-ridden apartment, a 21-year-old man took refuge on the balcony of his apartment, located on the 4th floor of rue Gurvand, in Rennes.
Below this building overlooking the station square, patrolling police saw the smoke and alerted the emergency services.
Quickly on the scene, the firefighters deployed the large ladder to evacuate the refugee student on his balcony.
Intoxicated by smoke, the young man was transported to the CHU Pontchaillou for treatment.
His apartment was completely destroyed by flames despite the intervention of twenty firefighters from the Saint-Georges and Blosne barracks.
