The 13-year-old from Linz was probably on his way to school when he was suddenly hit by a car. Now the doctors at Kepler University Hospital are fighting for his life.
That happened: the boy walked Thursday morning in the Ebelsberg district of Linz. At around 07:30, he crossed Florianer Straße – at a red traffic light, witnesses later reported. And then the accident happened: a 40-year-old from Linz drove his car out of town and there was a serious collision.
The driver behaved in an exemplary manner, provided first aid together with passers-by and called the emergency service. Emergency room and paramedics took the 13-year-old to Kepler University Hospital. The student is now in the pediatric intensive care unit. In the afternoon, the teenager was still in mortal danger, the hospital “Krone” learned.
