Original title: a family of seven in the Netherlands lived in a cellar for nine years just to wait for the end of the world
On October 16, according to Fox News, the Dutch police found a family in the basement of a farm in the northern Dutch town of lunawald on October 14 local time, including six young people aged 18-25 and a 58 year old man. At present, a 58 year old man suspected of confinement of six young people has been arrested.
It is reported that the reason why the family was found was that a 25-year-old man ran to the town tavern and said he "needed help", so the tavern owner called the police. The man had long hair and unkempt face. He said he had "never been to school" and hoped to "end his current situation". He also said he stole away from his farm at night and couldn't leave during the day.
The police found that the farm had a large vegetable garden and many sheds, but it was very messy. There was a staircase leading to the basement. The family living in the basement was isolated from the world and completely self-sufficient by vegetable gardens and goats. The six young people in the family didn't even know the existence of others in the world. It is said that their "Seclusion" is "waiting for the end of the world".
On October 15 local time, local mayor Roger & middot; De & middot; Roger de Groot said in a brief statement that the family had lived on the farm for nine years. Police said on twitter on the 15th that a large reconnaissance team was staying there to investigate the situation.
