Missing Vietnamese girl, 13, found dead near German-Polish border
A 13-year-old Vietnamese girl who disappeared in Berlin on Nov. 3 has been found dead in a vacant house near the Polish border, alongside a critically injured man suspected of killing her.
Police in Germany were called to an empty house in a small village near the German-Polish border on Sunday after a report of a break-in. Upon arrival, officers discovered the body of a 13-year-old Vietnamese girl named Lisa and a seriously wounded man. Police suspect the man may have caused Lisa's death and is currently hospitalized in a critical condition. The man's identity is still unknown, and it remains unclear if he will survive his injuries. An autopsy is scheduled to determine Lisa's cause of death.
Lisa had left her home in Berlin's Marzahn neighborhood the morning of November 3rd to catch a bus to school. She never arrived at school and was reported missing. Neighbors reported hearing cries for help in recent days, but no one called the police. A car with Berlin license plates was seen outside the house for hours on the day Lisa disappeared.
Investigators conducted a thorough search of the area, involving over 100 officers, sniffer dogs, and a helicopter. They found no evidence that Lisa had intended to leave her family. The case has been classified as a serious crime, and a homicide unit took over the investigation. Key questions remain unanswered, including the circumstances of Lisa's death, the identity of the suspect, and his motive.
These mysteries may remain unresolved if the suspect does not survive, as investigations typically conclude when the accused dies.
