A dramatic incident occurred on the grounds of the tranquil natural swimming lake in Königsdorf in Burgenland on Sunday. Two nine-month-old babies were doused with hot water. The parents are in shock, as one of the two babies is even in mortal danger.

It was probably a careless moment that turned a Sunday outing to the tranquil Königsdorf natural swimming lake into a real nightmare: a family from Styria had used Sunday to enjoy the beautiful weather in Burgenland. The father of the family had been out and about with a rucksack on his back containing a thermos flask of hot water. The container had also not been closed.

Babies injured in the head area
When the father leaned forward, the boiling hot liquid poured over him and the family's two babies. The boy and the girl suffered scalds to their heads, one child was particularly badly scalded. Emergency services were immediately called to the scene to treat the twins, who were just nine months old.

Child in artificial deep sleep
The babies were subsequently taken to hospital by two rescue helicopters for further treatment. On Monday, following an inquiry by the "Krone" newspaper, it emerged that one of the two children is in artificial deep sleep at Graz University Hospital and is in acute mortal danger.

It is not yet clear exactly how this dramatic incident occurred. It is also unclear why the thermos flask was not closed. The exact course of events is still being investigated.
