Two inmates of the Regional Prison of Moutier BE were injured in a fire on Wednesday evening. They were flown to the hospital by two helicopters of the Rega. Several people were also examined by two ambulance teams for suspected smoke inhalation, but none of them had to be hospitalized. Several inmates were evacuated as a precaution. The injured were an inmate in the cell where the fire broke out and a man in the neighbouring cell. When the fire brigade arrived, the prison staff had already extinguished the fire, but a lot of smoke was coming from the affected cell. The Bern Cantonal Police has launched an investigation into the cause of the fire. According to the prosecution and police, arson appears to be the cause of the fire.nnnnnnnn
