A young girl went missing from St. Michael’s Church in Kortrijk while her mother was working there. The mother thought her daughter was nearby but became worried when she couldn’t find her. She called the police for help. Meanwhile, the girl had wandered to Reepkaai, an area by the Leie River, where she fell into the water and held onto a wooden platform as the current tried to pull her under.
What actions did tourists take to save a girl from the Leie River?
At that moment, two tourists walking along the Reepkaai noticed a girl struggling in the river. They quickly rushed to help her, pulling her out of the water into a safe place. This action by the tourist saved her life. After some time the police arrived, and the girl was already safe with her mother.
After being rescued from the cold Leie River by two tourists, the girl was quickly taken to a nearby hospital for a check-up. Emergency responders acted fast, knowing the dangers of cold water exposure. At the hospital, doctors found her to be only mildly hypothermic and ensured she was stable before allowing her to leave.

Just another day in Belgium where tourists become the real heroes—who needs a lifeguard when you’ve got someone from Paris and a backpacker from Berlin saving the day? 😂 But of course, the locals were probably busy discussing the weather instead. Cheers to our foreign friends for keeping the drama alive! 🍻
