In Klaipėda, Lithuania, a fire was reported shortly before midnight in an apartment located on the second floor of a building. Firefighters arrived on the scene to find smoke billowing from the apartment window. They accessed the unit through the kitchen window, allowing them to quickly assess and manage the situation. Inside, they found a woman who was conscious and alert, and after being pulled to safety, she declined medical assistance.

The fire was extinguished using a powder fire extinguisher, and preliminary investigations revealed that a chair and some refuse had burned, leading to soot damage on the walls and ceiling of the room. Fortunately, no serious injuries were reported. Firefighters worked to ventilate the apartment following the extinguishment, ensuring that it was safe from any lingering smoke hazards.

Notably, the apartment did not have a smoke detector installed, which raises concerns about safety measures in place within the building. This incident highlights the importance of having functional smoke detectors and emergency preparedness in residential settings to prevent potentially disastrous outcomes in similar situations.
