Drama in the municipality of Oetz in the Tyrolean Ötztal on Thursday! A worker (28) was hit by the back of a truck. The man was freed with a forklift. However, all help came too late for the 28-year-old.
The dramatic accident took place around noon. “The worker was working alone on the back of a truck weighing approximately four tons when it fell on him for an unknown reason,” police said. When the business owner arrived at the business premises at 12:30 p.m., he noticed the tragic accident and alerted rescuers.
Loading space increased with forklift
The Oetz volunteer fire brigade was able to lift the loading area with a forklift so that the man could be rescued. “However, the emergency doctor could only determine that the 28-year-old was dead.” In addition to the police and fire brigade, the rescue service and an employee of the Tyrolean Labor Inspectorate were also on site.
