Devastating fire in Wilhelmshaven: Six -year -old fights for survival!

In the night of Monday there was a devastating fire in Wilhelmshaven, which not only left material damage, but also demanded the life of a four -year -old child. After extensive investigations, the police assume intentional arson. The residues found at the crime scene indicate that debris and bulky waste were set on fire in the entrance area of ​​an empty toy store. The public prosecutor has taken over the investigation in this tragic case and asks the public for clues. An unknown silver -colored car is said to have been nearby during the fire. Kreiszeitung reports that the brand was reported at around 2 a.m.

The fire also had serious consequences for the residents of the affected house. A six -year -old boy now floats in mortal danger, while two other children who are at the age of four and nine, as well as four adults, sometimes seriously injured, were brought to surrounding clinics. The mother of the late child is also one of the injuries. Two of the adults were already able to leave the hospital while the others are still being treated. NDR emphasizes that the affected apartments are no longer inhabited and the residents now had to be brought into emergency accommodation.

consequences and dangers of children's fire foundations

This tragic incident also throws a light on the problem of arson. Every year, around 6,000 children suffer burns and scales in Germany, with a significant part of the arson of children under the age of 14. These figures make it clear that children are often unable to assess the consequences of their actions, since they are often "incapable of guilt" and do not have to fear any criminal consequences. According to Veko, the proportion of suspects in kindergarten age is around 25%. As a rule, criminal proceedings against these children are not initiated, which underlines the important role of the police in the investigation and prevention of such incidents.

The firefighters also report that children often run back into fire apartments to get their toys or pets. It is important that parents and legal guardians pay attention to the dangers and, if necessary, take preventive measures to prevent such tragic events in the future. Sensifying the risks of fire in a child -friendly manner could make a decisive contribution to the fact that such accidents do not repeat themselves.

The investigation continues and the police asks all witnesses who made suspicious observations during the night. In times like these, the cooperation of the community is crucial for the clarification of such cases and for the protection of our children.
