A shocking incident happened earlier yesterday (29.05.2025) at Keratea and specifically in elementary school court of the area. An 8 -year -old boy fell into an uninsured underground tank with at least 2 meters of water.
The 8 -year -old boy was fortunately saved as he managed to stay on the surface of the water until he was removed from the unbearable water tank at the Keratea Municipal Stadium.
The almost tragic incident, which was a bit lacking in the child’s life, occurred after the completion of the training of the Football Academy, in which the 8 -year -old participated.
Then, along with a friend, they started playing next to the new 9X9 stadium, when he suddenly found himself in the tank. His friend realized what had happened and alerted both parents and other children on the pitch.
Fortunately, the child had his senses after falling into the water without hitting somewhere in the tank, so the colder gave him a pole in which he was hooked and managed to get it out.
Of course both the child and his mother were shocked. They first went to the Keratea Health Center and then to Children’s Hospital.
The incident was informed by the police and according to mesogianews.gr, the lid not only had no padlock, but it was probably open!
The mother is determined to turn legally against the Municipality of Lavreotiki and the Deputy Mayor of Sport.
After the accident, the lid of the tank was stuck with a padlock.
