Clinic's incense therapy triggers fire alarm

BERLIN -- A reported fire in a Hamburg basement turned out to be a false alarm after firefighters determined the smell of burning came from an alternative therapy being used at a neighboring gynecological clinic. The fire department said Thursday they received a call at lunchtime Wednesday about a strong burning smell from the basement of a clothing store. Authorities didn't seem irked about the false alarm, saying "Who knows, maybe one or two of the kids will later join the fire department." -- Associated Press
