As thermometers across Germany exceeded 40 degrees, Berlin police implemented an unusual measure. Normally used to intervene in social incidents, water cannons (TOMA) were deployed on the streets this time to cool down the public and tourists suffering from the scorching heat.
In Germany, where temperature records have been broken, TOMA vehicles, which are normally used to intervene in social incidents, have now taken to the streets to combat the heat.
POLICE COOL THE PUBLIC WITH TOMA VEHICLES
In the capital Berlin, where temperatures exceeded 40 degrees Celsius over the weekend, police sprayed water from social TOMA vehicles at crowded tourist and public spots, cooling down citizens. Citizens who saw the TOMA vehicles spraying water enjoyed cooling down with great pleasure.
WIDELY APPRECIATED
On social media, the spraying of water from TOMA vehicles in front of the historic Brandenburg Gate was greatly appreciated.
