As the police announced on Wednesday night, the leak was closed in the early evening. The deployment of the fire brigade, THW and rescue service then lasted until late in the evening. About 240 emergency services were on site. There was no danger to the population. The police were initially unable to provide information on the extent and amount of the damage.
