Due to the privacy of the family, the Security Region does not want to say much at the moment about the event. “We now give everyone the peace of mind to process this. It is very sad and it hits hard.”
According to reports on social media, it is a young man. Exactly how the firefighter could fall into the elevator shaft is still being investigated. The victim relied on a report of flooding in a residential complex. The Labor Inspectorate will investigate the dramatic accident of the firefighter who was employed as a volunteer by the Den Dolder fire brigade.

The statements of support pour in on social media. “Words are not enough. I wish all colleagues, friends and family much strength”; writes a fellow firefighter. “No words for it, a pitch-black day for the Den Dolder corps and other corps that were present.” Another writes, “With one less home, unimaginable and the worst nightmare of all of us.”
The Zuilen fire brigade, where the victim was a volunteer until recently, writes on the Facebook page that the flag on their post will be at half mast in the coming days.
