Heating oil leaked into a stream in Lichtenstein, Saxony, because a tank was too full. Firefighters set up an oil barrier.

Fuel oil leaked into a stream in the Rödlitz district of Lichtenstein (Zwickau district). According to initial findings, a tank in a residential building was too full and the oil leaked through the building into the ground and into the stream, as reported by the Zwickau police. A man noticed the oil film in the water on Tuesday evening. Firefighters filtered out the oil and set up an oil barrier.
