Boat collision on the Danube: they are still being searched by rescue teams – photos
The details and photos of the missing persons from the Danube boat collision have been made public and police are searching for them.
An 18-year-old girl and a 28-year-old woman, a 19-year-old man, a 30-year-old man and a 39-year-old man are the five missing persons who are still being searched for by the authorities after a boat accident near the main road 12 near Verőce on Saturday night, according to a post published on the Facebook page of the Budapest Police Headquarters on Monday afternoon.
Hundreds of people have been involved in the massive search for the five missing passengers of a speedboat that crashed near Verőce on Saturday night. It is now more a question of finding the fatalities, but the chances that the five missing survived the accident are becoming increasingly remote, according to a statement given to M1 on Monday by László Balázs, head of the Pest County Search and Rescue Service.
Such tradgedies are happening all over. Usually speed is 1 cause. Alcohol & other inebriating drugs another. No one should ever go on a boat who can’t swim without a life preserver. Maybe then a person has a chance…even to hold off hyperthermia for a while longer. Always give yourself the best chance…on land at all times, wear shoes etc that you can runi n, on water need to float, stay calm. If injured the chance of survival goes down and terrible results manifest. So sad to know that now it is a recovery effort only. .
