On the night of Sunday, the emergency services responded to a fire in two terraced houses in Sandal in Stavanger. – We are evacuating more than 40 residents. Currently, we do not have figures on how many have been evacuated. There is a fire in two terraced houses in chains with several apartments. There are no reports of injuries, says operations manager in the Sør-West police district, Steinar Knudsen, to news. Several of those who have already been evacuated have been moved to a nursery school nearby to keep warm, Knudsen says. – The municipality must establish an evacuee and relatives centre. There are no reports of injuries. The police were notified of the fire at 03:12. Duty leader Nils Simmerøy in the fire service tells news that they have sent large resources to the scene. – We are working hard. There was a lot of smoke when the fire brigade arrived. The fire quickly spread to the roof. An evacuation was therefore initiated, he says.
