“The older brother got up and saw the house on fire, and the other brother was already going out the window. Three children were already outside. The brothers observed that there were no more two brothers and sisters of 9 and 11 years old. They ran to the window of the room where the brother and sister slept and knocked him out. When he entered, one of the brothers called his sister. There was nothing to be seen in the smoke. He grabbed it out the window and passed it to another brother. Then he returned and called his brother, who was already coughing from the penetrating smoke. He also took it to the window and handed it to his brother. As the guy said, you couldn’t see anything in the room less than a meter from the window, “M. Pronckus described the circumstances of the accident.

According to the head of Plungė PGT, when the firefighters arrived, the house was already on fire: “The fire was extinguished by 10 firefighters from the Plungė PGT team and Rietavas, who arrived with 4 fire trucks. It was probably caused by a messy electrical installation or a failure of kitchen appliances. Autonomous smoke detectors were also installed in the house, but they did not work. The house was completely burned during the fire. Their fight was hampered by bags of clothing from the charity stacked in the shelter, which had to be removed. “

The Mayor of Plungė and the old man from Tver arrived at the site of the fire and decided where to house the family affected by the fire. For a temporary stay, a family offered their home to arsonists.
