The Tišnov massacre was reminiscent of horror, says Doctor Richtrová about the difficult intervention
According to her, the first twenty minutes were the most dramatic in Tišnov. “We only found out the seriousness on the spot. Right after entering the house, we found a young woman lying in a pool of blood with severe head injuries. Then the police told us that there were two other injuries in the house. At one point, we had three people in critical condition. We had to connect them to the lung ventilation, put them to artificial sleep and quickly transport them to the trauma center because they were bleeding profusely, ”the doctor recalls.
The tragedy in Tišnov: two people are lying on the ARO, the attacker faces up to 20 years
Ambulance crews are usually not equipped for a situation of this magnitude. The problem was mainly in the number of people requiring emergency assistance. “It was very stressful, because there were very few of us there at the beginning, only me and two paramedics. In addition, the material was a very high amount. The second crew could not help us, because they took care of a seriously cut boy in the local pub, where he ran for help, “says Richtrová. Fortunately, more colleagues arrived in a few minutes.
All the people attacked by the axes survived. “After the attack, four people remained critically injured and one person suffered moderate injuries. We intervened on the spot for about forty minutes, followed by transport to the hospital, “adds the doctor.
