Man perishes following gas leak incident in northern Munich
In the afternoon of an unspecified day, a tragic incident occurred at a Schrebergarten in Munich's northern district. The exact location was the Fasaneriesee, where a gas accident took place.
Emergency services, including firefighters, ambulances, and police, were swiftly dispatched to the scene following an emergency call at 17:44. A private celebration of seven individuals was underway when a generator in the basement of a garden hut began emitting toxic carbon monoxide gas.
The incident resulted in the death of a 41-year-old man, who later succumbed to the poisoning in a clinic. Another individual, a 50-year-old man, was seriously injured. Four other individuals sustained minor injuries. Two of the injured were reportedly revived on the way to the hospital.
Currently, the police are investigating the cause of the accident and the poisoning. While the exact cause is still under investigation, the police suspect the generator as the origin of the gas leak. However, no conclusive results have been reported yet. It is also worth noting that a private hut next to the inn was the source of the issue, but the location of the private hut has not been specified.
The extent of the incident is still unknown, and no further details about the cause of the gas leak have been provided. The police continue their investigation, and further updates will be provided as information becomes available.
