A gust of wind swept the baby into the sea


A four-year-old girl fell into the waters of Thermaikos Gulf on Tuesday afternoon. According to the Alpha channel, the baby was blown away by a gust of wind while walking with her grandmother.

To the horror of all passers-by, during a strong gust of wind, the child was simply blown off the embankment into the sea. The athlete, who at that time went for a run, without hesitation, rushed into the sea and pulled out a little girl who was in shock and cried loudly.

The video of the Alfa channel shows the moment when a passer-by with a child in his arms enters the cafeteria to warm her up until the EKAV ambulance arrives. Behind them, a frustrated grandmother enters with another grandson in a stroller, and a few minutes later the girl’s mother appears.

The girl was taken to the hospital for a medical examination. Luckily, the baby is in good health.

Recall that the embankment of the Thermaikos Gulf is a favorite place for walking the townspeople. However, this is not the first time that pedestrians find themselves in sea waters, because there are no restrictive railings along the entire embankment. And the winds there are sometimes up to 8-9 points on the Beaufort scale.
