A dramatic incident occurred in a crèche in Liège, close to the CHU Sart-Tilman hospital. A one-year-old girl has died after choking on a blind cord. The doctors couldn’t do anything.

It is a terrible tragedy, reported by our colleagues from Sudinfo, which occurred this Friday at the start of the afternoon in a crèche in the Liège region. A one-year-old girl died, possibly after choking on a blind cord. The facts occurred in the Valensart crèche, on rue des Charette, near the CHU du Sart-Tilman.

Contacted by our editorial staff, the Liège public prosecutor’s office indicated that it would not communicate this Sunday, but confirmed that a “investigation is ongoing.” The child was born on April 30, 2022. “The accident would have been caused by the cord of a blind”had specified the parquet floor to Sudinfo.

The hospital spokesperson explains that the crèche had been open for 5 years and that there had never been any problems before. It also depended directly on the CHU du Sart-Tilman.

The spokesperson tells us that the mother of the baby is an employee of the CHU, and she was working at the time of the tragedy. The hospital has confirmed to our colleagues at Sudinfo that a child “was taken care of by an SMUR. He was taken to the Citadel, where specialists were waiting for him. But he unfortunately died in the evening.”

Psychological support has been set up for the crèche staff. The question now is whether there was negligence or whether it was an accident.
