The evacuation has ended. Residents may return home.
As a reminder, on Tuesday, February 18, we reported that a reader informed us about the planned Wednesday evacuation of residents of Modrzewiowa Street and the surrounding area. According to his information, explosive materials were found in the same building where, four years ago, there were two explosions.
At that time, a 36-year-old man, a former vocalist of Sumptuastic, suffered bodily injuries as a result of the incident. Previously, operations in Bolesławiec had been conducted by the Provincial Police Headquarters in Wrocław.
The matter appears serious. Yesterday, the police provided no information.
Nevertheless, yesterday we managed to establish that the evacuation would begin on Wednesday, February 19, in the morning. It would cover buildings within a radius of 150 meters from the place where the explosive materials were found. (On Tuesday, police officers went from house to house informing people affected by the evacuation.)
Police pyrotechnicians will deal with the dangerous materials.
