May 29, Vitebsk / Olga Bogacheva - BELTA /. The Pervomaysky District (Vitebsk) Department of the Investigative Committee of the Republic of Belarus will conduct an investigation into the attempted suicide of a minor resident of Vitebsk. This was reported to a BELTA correspondent by the official representative of the Investigative Committee Department for the Vitebsk Region, Inna Gorbacheva. "This decision was made taking into account the age of the victim and the circumstances of this incident," said Inna Gorbacheva, noting that the investigation period is 10 days. If it is impossible to make a decision within this period, it can be extended up to one month. On May 28, at about 9:20 PM, a girl born in 2000 fell from the seventh-floor window of a multi-story building on Maxim Gorky Street in Vitebsk. She fell six floors and landed on the entrance canopy. Ambulance crews arrived at the scene. The medics could not remove the fallen girl from the canopy on their own. Rescuers from the Ministry of Emergency Situations carried her down on a stretcher and handed her over to the medics. The victim, with severe injuries, was urgently taken to the hospital. Fortunately, the girl survived. The 12-year-old Vitebsk resident attempted suicide in response to her parents' disciplinary measures. The schoolgirl brought a stolen T-shirt from a sanatorium. The parents learned about the child's misconduct after a call from the health resort. It is unknown what disciplinary measures were taken by them, but the girl, left alone at home, jumped out of the apartment window. -0-
