The storm throughout Austria led to numerous operations in recent days. A tragic ski lift accident also occurred in South Tyrol on Saturday afternoon. Several people were injured.
These were dramatic minutes that took place in the South Tyrolean ski area of Blosegg. The heavy storm caused a tree to fall on a moving chairlift. The tragedy: several people were on the chairlift at the time and were injured.
Difficult evacuation
Witnesses immediately alerted the emergency services. The injured were then evacuated from the elevator. However, the strong wind made the fire brigade’s rescue work more difficult.
A large contingent of mountain rescue services managed to get everyone out of the chairlift safely.
