In Antalya, an old man who was angry with his wife, who had been staying with his son for a while due to family problems and who had made a restraining order, tried to burn down his house. While the old woman watched the fire in tears, it was extinguished before it got bigger with the timely intervention of the fire brigade.
The incident took place around 13.30 in a detached slum located on 5932 Street in Baraj District of Kepez district. According to the information obtained, the old woman's son took his mother with him because there had been problems between the old man, whose name was learned to be Ayhan, and his wife for a while. The old man, who often stayed with his son living next door and argued with his wife whom he did not let into the house, learned today that his son and his wife had decided to restrain him and vacate the house.
When he saw the police teams coming to the address to inform him of the decision, the old man locked himself in the house and said that he would set the house on fire. The man opened the tube in the kitchen and set the cardboard waste in the bags he collected on fire. While smoke covered the inside in a short time, the person named Ayhan did not open the door despite all the warnings of the police teams. Thereupon, the police team at the address broke the door and entered. While the old man was detained by the police team, the fire brigade team arrived at the address in a short time and intervened in the fire.
While the fire crews quickly extinguished the fire in the kitchen part of the house, the old woman who saw her house burning could not hold back her tears. The old woman, who was crying and watching the fire crews' extinguishing and cooling activities, was consoled by her son and relatives. The old man, who was detained by the police teams, was taken to the police station to take his statement. - ANTALYA
