Firecracker accident in Schleswig-Holstein
Terrible accident in Eckernförde: when he was trying to build firecrackers himself, a 19-year-old man caused a serious explosion. Jannik S. had been handling chemicals in her parents’ winter garden two days before New Year’s Eve when the mixture suddenly exploded. The young man had to be transferred to a special clinic with life-threatening injuries, police said. In the video, we show how violent the explosion was felt across the street and what damage it left behind.
Greenhouse and house in Eckernförde badly damaged by explosion
The 19-year-old suffered severe burns in the explosion. The semi-detached house’s winter garden was completely destroyed and the house was also seriously damaged. A structural engineer examined the home and found that it was probably still habitable, police said. Neighboring houses were reportedly unaffected. The boy’s parents were shocked, said police spokesman Michael Heinrich.
Explosion in Eckernförde caused a pressure wave
Wehrführer Meint Behrmann of the Eckernförde volunteer fire brigade told the German Press Agency that the fire had already died down when the comrades arrived. There must have been a jet of flame, but the fire was probably extinguished due to the strong pressure wave.
LKA insures chemicals
It is not known exactly what the young man was driving and whether he wanted to circumvent the ban on the sale of firecrackers with the DIY firecrackers. However, the LKA had secured the chemicals and will now examine them, a police spokesman said. According to information from RTL, it is said that the young man used to play fireworks.
