The boy found the fireworks in Rotterdam’s Loderstraat.
An 11-year-old boy lost his hand and eye to fireworks on the Saturday before the start of the new year. A plastic surgeon from the Wilhelmina Children’s Hospital (WKZ) in Utrecht reported the seriously injured boy on Linkedin. “We have looked at all possible options to fix something, but there seems to be nothing but amputating the hand with all the fingers,” writes the surgeon. “His right eye needs to be removed by the ophthalmologist due to extensive injury.”
