After the devastating fire in a Hamburg hospital with three dead, a patient of 72 years has now been arrested. There is suspicion of arson.
When interrogating eyewitnesses there were several indications of the 72-year-old, said a report from Bild.de. The man must be brought to a judge on Monday.
Three dead, dozens of injuries
The fatalities are three men aged 84, 85 and 87, 34 people were injured, one smoother in mortal danger. The fire brigade initially spoke of two life -threatening injuries and called a much higher number somewhat injured. A spokeswoman for Kliniek said that employees were also treated in the first aid. She could not say whether these were already counted by the fire brigade.
Injured in surrounding hospitals
Parts of the hospital had to be evacuated in one of the clinic buildings because of the fire on Sunday evening. The injured patients were largely cared for in the first aid of the clinic, two were taken to the surrounding hospitals. The rescue measures are now completed, the fire was removed, the spokesperson said in the early morning. How many people had to be brought to safety is still unclear. The stations were “normal,” said the spokeswoman for the clinic.
