Neighbors Rescue Mother and Child from Bonn Apartment Fire

A community effort saved a 25-year-old woman and her one-year-old daughter after a fire broke out in the building's basement.

A fire erupted in the basement of a multi-family home in Bonn-Duisdorf on Friday evening for reasons not yet determined.
Before emergency responders arrived, neighbors used a ladder and a trailer to rescue a 25-year-old mother and her one-year-old child from the building's upper floor.
Both the mother and child suffered minor injuries from smoke inhalation and were transported to a hospital for treatment.
Firefighters extinguished the blaze within an hour and conducted a thorough search of the building, finding no additional occupants.
Authorities are investigating the cause of the fire, which remains unclear at this time.
