Questionable action – no penalty for “survival swimmers” from the Rhine

Date:

The action of the 36-year-old man who tried to swim the Rhine from Lustenau (Vorarlberg) last Friday in the direction of Lake Constance during heavy rainfall, not only caused a stir, but also prevented rescuers from moving the population elsewhere. help out. . The senseless action has no consequences for the self-proclaimed “survival swimmer”.

As the Vorarlberg fire brigade desperately battled the effects of last Friday’s torrential rain, a 36-year-old thought he needed to make a “survival trip” and swim the Rhine to Lake Constance.

Passers-by who found the man in the Rhine suspected an emergency and alerted the rescue services. Only after “good conviction” could the man get out of the water of the Rhine near “Bruggerloch”.

The 36-year-old does not have to fear criminal or other consequences. The reason: swimming in the Rhine is not strictly prohibited at the moment.
