Oinoi: 14-year-old on ventilator after accident โ Reportedly took car keys secretly
A 14-year-old boy is hospitalized in critical condition following a serious car accident in Oinoi, Greece, after allegedly taking his parents' car keys without permission.
A 14-year-old boy is currently under intensive care at the Childrenโs Hospital in Athens following a severe car accident in Oinoi, located in Boeotia, Greece, near the borders of the municipality of Chalkida. His condition is reported to be stable, according to local news sources. The incident occurred after the boy allegedly took the car keys from his parents secretly on Tuesday afternoon, leading to tragic consequences.
Witness accounts suggest that the teenager lost control of the vehicle, resulting in it crashing into a tree. The force of the collision was so severe that the boy was ejected from the car, resulting in critical injuries. Emergency services were called to the scene and the boy was initially transported to Chalkida Hospital, where he was intubated due to confirmed cranio-cerebral injuries before being transferred to the specialized pediatric hospital in Athens for further treatment.
This incident raises significant concerns about adolescent driving behavior and parental supervision regarding access to vehicles. It underscores the need for greater awareness and preventive measures to ensure such tragic accidents are avoided in the future. The community is likely to rally around the family during this critical time as they await further updates on the boyโs recovery.
