Supermarket Roof Collapse Injures Twelve

Published: 2024-07-30

A supermarket roof partially collapsed in Ratzeburg, Schleswig-Holstein, injuring at least twelve people.

Emergency services received the distress call at 5:10 PM, but the building is considered highly unstable, preventing rescuers from entering.

Authorities are using a drone to search for any additional victims beneath the debris, although the likelihood of finding more people is deemed low.

The cause of the roof collapse remains unclear.

Among the injured, some were taken to the hospital, while others received treatment at the scene.

Fortunately, all injuries are reported to be minor.
