countersignals – A motionless boat on Großensee starts a search

A boat without a leader on the Großensee in the Stormarn district caused a larger response from the fire brigade and police on Sunday evening. A fisherman had seen the boat floating on the water and cautiously alerted the emergency services, a police spokesman reported. “Because a mooring buoy had been set out and a paddle was visible, it was suspected that something had happened to the person in the boat.” However, no one was found during the search in the water and on the shore. Drones, divers and thermal imaging cameras were used for the search. The search was ended around 1:00 a.m. The spokesman could not immediately answer whether the search would continue today.

The fire brigade and police intensified their action and deployed drones, divers and thermal imaging cameras due to the situation with the boat without a leader in the district of Stormarn. Despite the extensive search, neither the ship nor its occupants were found, which led to questions about a possible follow-up search in Schleswig-Holstein. In such emergency situations, rapid cooperation between the fire brigade and the police is crucial.
