Died while playing
Boys buried by masses of sand in Denmark
Two German boys have died after being buried by a mass of sand while playing in Denmark. According to the police, the nine-year-old and the twelve-year-old may have dug a kind of cave in the dunes, which may have triggered a landslide.
It had rained heavily recently. This is why there could be an increased risk of landslides of this kind on the coasts, the police said. The accident occurred on Sunday in Nørre Vorupør in the north of Denmark. The boys' parents were at the scene when the incident occurred.
Rescued from sand masses after 40 minutes
After the children were buried by a mass of sand while playing, a feverish search was launched to find them. Around 40 minutes later, the two were rescued and given first aid. They were taken by helicopter to hospital in a critical condition.
They died of their injuries there on Tuesday evening, the police reported on Wednesday. They assume that it was a "tragic accident". The family comes from the Munich area.
