Published
There is a major fire in a container at a waste station outside Lillestrøm. The police have confirmed the fire and report that there is a risk of it spreading to other containers and the waste around them. The fire service is on site to extinguish the blaze.
The waste station is located in an area that many residents use to drop off waste, and the police urge people to stay away from the area while the work is ongoing. It is not yet known what caused the fire.
The police are investigating the case and will provide more information when it becomes available. No personal injuries have been reported so far.
Fires in waste containers can be dangerous because smoke and toxic gases can spread through the air. For this reason, the authorities advise people in the vicinity to close windows and doors if they notice the smell of smoke.
