Thanks to Angelika Simon, her daughter Michelle and Labrador Koda from the Main-Kinzig rescue dog team, the search for a missing person on St. Nicholas’ Night ended happily.
Freigericht – Around 5 p.m. on Sunday evening, the police received a missing person report for a 64-year-old resident of a nursing home in Freigericht-Somborn (Main-Kinzig-Kreis *) with dementia. The man is dependent on medical help and was only lightly clothed – a life-threatening situation at the current temperatures.
In an interview with fuldaerzeitung.de *, the mother-daughter team reported on the exhausting search.
Despite the use of a police helicopter with a thermal imaging camera and the volunteer fire brigade, the search was initially unsuccessful. Only the Main-Kinzig rescue dog squad was able to find the severely hypothermic man. Also present: Angelika Simon from Gelnhausen, chairwoman and managing director of the rescue dog squad, who has been a member of the squad for 20 years, and her daughter Michelle. * fuldaerzeitung.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
