Five children were found dead in an apartment in West Germany, police said. Local media reported that they were killed by their mother, who later attempted suicide, BGNES reported.
The children were found in a private apartment in the city of Solingen in the North Rhine-Westphalia state, police said, without giving further details. They were one, two, three, six and eight years old, according to Bild. Later, the mother jumped in front of a train but survived with serious injuries, according to the report. They took her under police protection.
According to Bild, the children’s grandmother called the police and reported that her 27-year-old daughter had killed five of her children and probably ran away with her other son with the intention of committing suicide. Later, the woman’s 11-year-old son was found unharmed.
The mother was traveling to Düsseldorf Central Station, about 35 kilometers away, where she jumped in front of a train, reports Bild. She was rescued between two of the lines and taken to a local hospital for treatment, the national news agency DRA reported, citing emergency services. Investigations are ongoing, police said.
