Residents had a blast heard and also saw fast flaming fires. “When we arrived was the building ablaze, and beat the flames through the roof,” says officer Bart De Koninck. “The damage to the roof is great. Also entering the building was hard because it is totally isolated. We have, literally, a way must saw.”

On the spot were no suspects found. “Our local criminal investigation department turn the investigation further. For now, there are still no suspects arrested”, ” Evelyn says Tiebos of the police Voorkempen.
