The tragic incident happened in one of the high-rise buildings in Volgograd, where an elderly man died after being boiled alive in the toilet of his own apartment. As reported by V1.ru , we are talking about a nine-storey building on Turbine Street.

The hot water outlet hose came off in the apartment, after which the man was flooded with boiling water.

"How it all turned out is still unknown, perhaps the man felt bad and grabbed the pipe. All this will be clarified during the inspection. In the meantime, during the inspection of the scene, traces of external influence on the pipe were found," the agency's source confirmed.

The doctors who arrived at the scene found the pensioner already without signs of life.
