Two local residents were injured in a car accident in Weerberg in the Tyrolean district of Schwaz on Sunday evening. The driver (56) drove the vehicle off the road in a bend.
The 56-year-old and his 42-year-old passenger drove out of the valley from the Weidener Hütte in Weerberg along the Innerberg forest road on Sunday around 8:15 p.m. An accident occurred in the last hairpin bend just above the Weerberg municipal exchange: the driver went over the side of the road and the car fell down a steep, wooded slope and overturned several times.
Both men were taken to hospital
A witness alerted rescuers. The Weerberg fire brigade had to cut the two injured car occupants from the wreckage with rescue scissors. The rescue team then took the 56-year-old to the clinic in Innsbruck and the 42-year-old to the hospital in Hall in Tirol. Both were hospitalized. An alcohol test was carried out on the driver of the car and it was positive.
The car was completely destroyed in the crash. The fire brigade had to recover the wreckage under difficult circumstances.
