An explosion in a house in Korsør has shaken the neighborhood, and Maiken Olsen has shared video footage from the incident. On Tuesday, a violent explosion occurred in the neighboring house of Maiken Olsen, and her surveillance camera captured the groundbreaking event. The explosion claimed the life of a 52-year-old man, and her video recordings from the garden clearly show how the idyll was suddenly replaced by chaos with splinters flying through the air.
Maiken Olsen has expressed her anger over the incident, which she believes could have been avoided. According to DR (Danish Broadcasting Corporation), the now deceased man stored up to a ton of explosive substances on his property. On her Facebook profile, Maiken Olsen writes: “How on earth can one have something like that lying around? I am so sorry and frustrated on behalf of the entire neighborhood.” She has subsequently shared her post with several media outlets.
The neighbor, who according to the police had previously worked with fireworks, had a large amount of dangerous chemicals in his home. The Danish Defence’s Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) service has removed the remaining explosive materials from the address after the explosion, as reported by Ritzau (Danish news agency).
