Missing Girl Presumed Dead After Discovery in Brandenburg

In a tragic turn of events, the search for thirteen-year-old Lisa Ta has concluded with devastating news. Police authorities believe the body of the young girl was discovered on Sunday in an abandoned house in Brandenburg. According to officials, Brandenburg police were contacted around noon on Sunday when unauthorized individuals entered an uninhabited single-family home in Bad Freienwalde district.

Officers from the Märkisch-Oderland police inspectorate responded to the scene, where they found the body of a female and a severely injured man. Current investigations indicate that the deceased is likely Lisa Ta, while the injured individual is suspected of causing her death. The man is currently in critical condition at a hospital and is under police guard.

His identity has yet to be confirmed and is an active part of the ongoing investigation. The homicide divisions of the Berlin State Office of Criminal Investigation and the Berlin Public Prosecutor's Office are collaborating with Brandenburg police to secure evidence and continue their inquiries. Lisa had gone missing on Tuesday, November 3rd, after leaving her home to commute by public transport from Barnimplatz to her school in Berlin’s Marzahn-Hellersdorf district.

Despite extensive searches involving up to 220 officers, search dogs, and a helicopter, her whereabouts remained unknown until the unfortunate discovery on Sunday.
