A dramatic incident occurred on Sunday at the tranquil natural swimming lake in Königsdorf in Burgenland. Two babies had to be hospitalized and their parents are in shock.
It may have been a careless moment that turned a Sunday trip to the quiet natural swimming lake of Königsdorf into a real nightmare: a family from Styria had used Sunday to enjoy the beautiful weather in Burgenland. The father of the family was traveling with a backpack on his back containing a thermos with hot water. The container was also not closed.
Babies injured in the head area
As the father leaned forward, the boiling liquid poured over him and the family’s two babies. The boy and girl suffered burns to their head areas, with one child suffering particularly severe burns. Emergency services were immediately alerted and rushed to the scene to care for the two twins, who were only nine months old.
To the hospital by rescue helicopter
The children were then taken to hospital in two rescue helicopters and treated there. Both father and mother are in shock.
How exactly this dramatic incident could have happened was not yet clear. It was also not clear why the thermos flask was not closed. The exact course of events is still being determined.
