Flames erupt from an apartment building in Bochum. The tenant of the apartment on fire was able to escape outside in time, but the neighbors' lives were in danger. Among them was a family with four children. The problem: The smoke has cut off their escape route and they can't get outside without help. Can emergency services rescue parents and children through the windows? An alarm also goes off at the Bochum fire station during the night: securing a motorcycle that has been involved in an accident. The situation on site is completely different: a truck has had a serious accident, the driver is trapped and has to be freed.
