Heldin von Grootfontein-Feuer tot

Windhoek - Hilfsschwester Kathlyn van Wyk, die bei dem Feuer im Altenheim von Grootfontein das Seniorenehepaar Fleischmann aus den Flammen gerettet hatte, ist gestern früh in Windhoek verstorben.

Die 69-Jährige erlag am Montagmorgen um 3.30 Uhr den Folgen ihrer Brandverletzungen und Rauchvergiftung, nachdem sie elf Tage auf der Intensivstation des Römisch-Katholischen Krankenhauses behandelt worden war. Van Wyk hinterlässt zwei Söhne im Alter von 44 und 48 Jahren, zwölf Enkelkinder und drei Urenkel.


Die Hilfsschwester galt als die Heldin des Tages, als in der Nacht vom 18. auf den 19. September im Altenheim von Grootfontein ein Feuer ausbrach. Sie hatte das Ehepaar Jochen (85) und Eva Fleischmann (80) allein aus deren brennendem Zimmer gerettet. Das Feuer war einer ersten Aussage von Eva Fleischmann zufolge entstanden, als diese beim Anzünden einer Zigarette das Streichholz hatte fallen lassen. Die Polizei war nach gestrigen Informationen noch nicht vor Ort, um die Brandursache zu untersuchen.
