As the police announced, the farmer who was seriously injured in an accident at work in Fontanella (Vorarlberg) – the ‘Krone’ reported – died in the state hospital of Feldkirch.
The 55-year-old was just fertilizing a pasture on the Alpe Fatnella with a special agricultural vehicle to which a liquid fertilizer tank was attached when the accident occurred: when reversing, the trailer drove over the edge of a slope, causing the towing vehicle and everything were dragged along by the occupant.

The team then overturned several times – the farmer was thrown from the driver’s cab and left lying on the pasture with serious injuries.
Alpine helpers managed to resuscitate the man, but the sad news from the hospital followed the next day: the injuries had turned out to be too serious, the victim died.
