A man in Rakvere was treated after experiencing symptoms related to a gas leak in his home on February 14. Emergency services responded to a call from Tööstuse street at 2:17 p.m. following reports of illness and weakness.

The incident occurred due to the premature closure of a stove, resulting in a buildup of gas within the residence. Firefighters were on scene and determined that the concentration of gas was high enough to have potentially resulted in a serious outcome. Authorities confirmed that the presence of a gas detector in households utilizing natural gas and solid fuel heating elements is now mandatory, as these devices can be life-saving in the event of gas leakage.
