Who helps the helper?

A technical defect of a water gate in the River Neckar and heavy rains caused a flooding in Stuttgart's suburb Hofen last Saturday. :{:)

Even the DLRG's vehicle fleet drowned. :shock:

Jutta provides us with some pics which show the situation after the water level has dropped again.

A half wetsuit comes in handy to walk through the water and recover swimming around items like bins and wheels

A 'water sports center at the Neckar' indeed :oO

'Close the barrier, there's nothing else we can do'

Further DLRG and fire fighter units were otherwise occupied, so they called the THW, hope it worked.
