The alarm was raised around 5:00 p.m. by a passerby who saw the child on the windowsill and called 112. A crew of the Road Bureau from IPJ Vâlcea intervened on the scene.
The police acted quickly and coordinated to prevent a possible tragedy. One of the agents remained outside the building, ready to intervene in case the child fell, while his colleague went to the door of the apartment to alert the people inside.
The intervention had a happy ending, with the minor being removed from the window and safely out of harm's way.
Following the checks, the law enforcement officers established that, at the time of the incident, the child was unattended, although his father was in the home, but he was in the bathroom.
Authorities are reminding parents of the importance of supervising children, especially in situations that can quickly become extremely dangerous.
We remind you that this week, a 12-year-old child, institutionalized in a family-type apartment in Pitesti, died after falling from the 4th floor of the block where he lived with other minors. Emergency crews from the Argeș Emergency Situations Inspectorate and the County Ambulance Service intervened immediately, trying resuscitation maneuvers, but the child was declared dead on the spot.
