A major search is currently underway for St. Wolfgang. A water sports enthusiast would have gone down in the afternoon in front of several witnesses. The search and rescue operation is not without problems due to the depth of the Wolfgangsee at this point.
At around 2:30 p.m., witnesses sounded the alarm: a water sports enthusiast had fallen off his stand-up paddleboard and did not resurface. Because an immediate rescue operation was of no avail, divers from the fire brigade and the water rescue service were called in.
Lake at the accident site about 60 meters deep
The operation is still ongoing, there are now six weirs or diving units on site. Operating conditions are not easy, the lake at the suspected accident site is up to 60 meters deep. That means the missing person may be 20 meters below the maximum diving depth for fire divers.
The use is currently still ongoing, we will inform you on krone.at as soon as there are new developments.
