In Hunedoara County, the police were alerted to a serious incident in the town of Uricani, where a man allegedly took a child hostage, threatening him with a cutter knife.

The incident was reported in the context where the man might actually be the minor's father, and he was heading towards the municipality of Lupeni. Authorities responded quickly, sending a team of negotiators from the Special Actions Service (SAS) to the scene.

The team's priority is to protect the child's life and physical integrity, managing the situation through dialogue and specific negotiation measures. The Hunedoara police are constantly monitoring the evolution of the intervention and will update information as the situation unfolds.
