A six-year-old from Vienna ended up in the hospital after a fire accident in Carinthia.
A six-year-old girl from Vienna was seriously injured in a fire accident in Carinthia on Wednesday afternoon. The child was with her parents on the Petzen (Völkermarkt district) and went into a mountain chapel in an unobserved moment. There, the six-year-old presumably got too close to some tealights, causing her dress to catch fire, the police stated in a release.
Emergency Helicopter in Action
The girl ran out of the church, where a passerby tore the dress from her body and extinguished the flames with her own sweater. The child suffered third-degree burns and was flown to the children's hospital in Graz by an emergency helicopter.
