At 1:20 p.m., eight comrades from the Old Town Fire and Rescue Station and the Friedrichstadt Rescue Station had to move out to the World Trade Center (WTC) on Freiberger Strasse.

As fire department spokesman Michael Klahre announced, a boy (7) got his right foot between the movable wing of a door and the glass outer wall in the building and could no longer free himself.

“The fire brigade forces initially had a calming effect on the child and protected the boy with a blanket against further injuries caused by the imminent rescue,” said Klahre about the further measures for the child with an injured foot.

The outer safety pane was then masked off with a film to prevent it from splintering and then sawed open with a glass cutter.

Thus the disc could be pushed outwards and the seven-year-old could be freed.

The comrades used a wire cutter to free the child. It came to a clinic in an ambulance.

His mother was also slightly injured in the crash. The father had to be treated on an outpatient basis because of intermittent circulatory problems.
