Woman avoids accident – medical emergency: driver dies while driving

Date:

A 72-year-old motorist suddenly experienced physical discomfort while driving in Paternion (Villach-Land district) on Saturday afternoon. Any help came too late for the man.

The 72-year-old was walking with his friend on Kreuzner Straße on Saturday when he suddenly had a medical emergency in the Paternion area around 1:15 p.m. “The 77-year-old passenger noticed the incident and was able to stop the vehicle unharmed by pressing the handbrake and gear lever,” police said.

Other road users and emergency services who happened to pass the scene of the accident immediately rendered first aid. The crew of the rescue helicopter RK1 also carried out resuscitation measures, but unfortunately without success. With the Spitaler only death could be determined.
