Children blocked behind iron door

Two children aged 10 months and, respectively, three years remained blocked in an apartment in Durlesti town. Their mother closed them in the house and went to the store. When she returned, he could not open the door, Emergencies Service spokeswoman Liliana Puscasu has told Info-Prim Neo. The woman was absent for half an hour. When she returned, her three-year-old daughter wanted to help her and accidentally blocked the lock. All the mother’s and neighbor’s attempts to unblock it failed. The rescuers were called and they opened the door in several minutes. Two drivers involved in road accidents on the Comrat-Basarabeasca and Rascani-Glodeni roads were taken out of their damaged cars by teams of rescuers. The body of a 64-year-old man was found in a house in Telenesti town after a fire. Allegedly, the fire was caused by a faulty electric stove. The 1,773 fires that happened in Moldova so far this year claimed 146 lives. Five of the victims were children.
