Man has a breakdown and spreads terror in Bodrum: Sets fire to the market where his brother was! There are dead and injured

A terrifying incident occurred at a market operating on Cumhuriyet Street in the Bodrum district of Muğla.

Erkan Sekmen arrived at the market run by his brother, with whom he had a feud, carrying a gasoline canister. After arguing with his brother Hakan Sekmen (49), Erkan Sekmen poured the gasoline he was holding and set the place on fire, causing an explosion in the market.

In the incident, Erkan Sekmen, Hakan Sekmen, Hakan Sekmen's sons Y.E.S. (23) and Y.H.S. (15), his ex-wife Ö.Ş., and an employee S.U. (24) were injured.

Following the report, 112 Emergency Health, fire department, and police teams arrived at the scene. While Erkan Sekmen was taken to the American Hospital, the other injured were transferred to Bodrum State Hospital. Hakan Sekmen, a father of two who suffered burns over a large part of his body, could not be saved despite all interventions.

It was learned that the life-threatening condition of the seriously injured Erkan Sekmen continues. An investigation into the incident has been launched. On the other hand, local residents stated that there had been frequent fights between the two brothers before.
