Tragedy in District 15 of Budapest! Grandparent dies while saving his grandchild – VIDEOS, PHOTOS

In the early hours on Monday, a child’s cry for help could be heard in District 15 of Budapest. A young boy was trying to ask for help from a house that caught on fire. Both of his grandparents lost their lives.

The 12 year-old-boy lived together with his grandparents in the house that caught on fire. The flames went meters high, and the boy’s cry for help could be heard in the neighbourhood: “Help! Someone save me!” – he cried.

According to Blikk, it was the grandfather who found out about the fire when he woke up and went immediately to take his grandchild to the roof to save his life. The child survived, thanks to him. The grandparents, however, were not that lucky; tragically, they both lost their lives. When the police arrived at the site of the accident, they fearlessly saved the young boy from the fire, but his grandparents could not get out. One of them died in the ambulance car, and the other in the hospital later. The house in Pázmány Péter Street, in District 15 of Budapest completely burnt down.

The neighbours were also in shock; they could hardly believe what happened. “We saw the fire, and then within just a couple of minutes, a lot of fire and policemen appeared. We had no idea what could have happened.” – said one of them.
