In a fire that broke out in an apartment that had turned into a garbage house in the Çınarcık district of Yalova, a couple lost their lives, while their son was seriously injured.
A fire broke out for an unknown reason in an apartment on the 3rd floor of the Metaş 1 Building on Poyraz Street in the Çınarcık district of Yalova during the night. The fire brigade teams that arrived to intervene were shocked by the scene they encountered. The teams, struggling to intervene in the apartment that had turned into a junk house, opened a jump mattress to rescue Hande Savaştan (53), who was trapped inside, as the electrical wires obstructed the ladder vehicle. The woman, who fell onto the jump mattress from the window, was later taken to Çınarcık State Hospital. Despite all the interventions, the woman could not be saved.
INVESTIGATION INTO THE FIRE CONTINUES
Meanwhile, the teams that intervened and extinguished the fire found Hande Savaştan's husband, Ali Savaştan (73), dead in the living room. In the bathroom, the couple's child, Cengizhan Savaştan (26), was found seriously injured. The injured person was taken by ambulance to Yalova Training and Research Hospital by the medical teams that arrived at the scene. Later, the patient's condition worsened, and he was transferred to Bursa. The investigation into the fire is ongoing.
