According to the police, forensic investigation shows that the cause can be found in a technical malfunction. “That failure ultimately led to this fatal accident,” said the police, who state that the identification of the two victims has yet to take place. They suspect that it concerns the two residents, but want to wait for the investigation before this can be confirmed with certainty. Local residents, among others, told De Telegraaf on Wednesday that the victims are an 80-year-old woman and her daughter.
The two bodies were found when police received a report of a possible fire at the property around 11 p.m. on Tuesday evening. Because there was water running out of the door and there was indeed a smell of fire, the fire brigade was called in. They found the two deceased persons.
