A forest worker was seriously injured in Blühnbachtal (Salzburg) on Friday when he fell on a branch while processing beetle trees. Rescuers took him in a rescue helicopter to Salzburg University Hospital.
The 42-year-old worker slipped in the municipality of Tenneck (Pongau) while cutting branches from a fallen tree and fell with his buttocks on a vertical branch. This penetrated about ten centimeters deep into his body.
