Tragic Easter Egg Hunt Accident in Germany

0:00On April 5th, a tragic accident hit northern Germany on Sunday when fierce winds toppled a massive tree right in the middle of an Easter egg hunt, claiming three lives, including a ten-month-old baby girl. Four folks got trapped under the branches, a 21-year-old woman and her infant daughter, plus a 16-year-old girl all passed away, either. Right there, soon after at the hospital, while an 18-year-old woman fought serious injuries and got airlifted out. This happened at a state-run center that helps pregnant women and new moms get back on their feet, so the whole community there is reeling from the shock. Grief counselors rushed in to support everyone on site, and officials from the Schleswig-Holstein region called it heartbreaking, sending their deepest sympathies to the families and witnesses. With the high-wind warning already in effect from the weather service, authorities are reviewing what went down, holding space for those for ever changed.
