On Thursday night, the Helsinki emergency services received an alert for a rescue operation on Bahamankatu in the Jätkäsaari area. The police confirm that the operation is active and that six units have been dispatched to the scene. It has been suggested that the incident involves the same building that has been in the news over the past few months for previous safety concerns.

The police, while involved in the ongoing situation, have not disclosed further details at this time. Inspections and safety measures were planned for the parking facility, where previous tragic incidents occurred last year that resulted in the deaths of three individuals, including two teenagers. Despite the severity of the past events, police have stated that there was no suspicion of criminal activity linked to those incidents.

In light of this rescue operation, concerns have already been raised about the safety protocols at the identify-building, especially following reports of unauthorized climbing by youths in the parking garage. The community anticipates updates as the situation evolves, highlighting the ongoing challenges related to safety in public spaces in the area.
