A cozy barbecue evening in Fürstenfeldbruck ends horribly: three young people have suffered severe burns, the others had to be looked after psychologically.
Fürstenfeldbruck
– With the hot temperatures at the weekend, many people turned on the grill to eat outside.
Some young people also planned to do this on Saturday evening on Friedrich-Ebert-Straße in Fürstenfeldbruck, but the whole thing ended horribly.
This is from the police report.
The master of the house wanted to light the charcoal, but he couldn't do it the conventional way.
A 17-year-old guest grabbed a spirit bottle, which turned out to be a fatal mistake.

A jet of flame erupted, setting three young people standing around on fire.
Other guests were able to quickly extinguish the clothing that had caught fire, but the three 16-year-old youths suffered severe burns.
They were taken to various hospitals in Munich.
After the incident, the other guests had to be looked after psychologically.
The police inspection Fürstenfeldbruck has started the investigation.
