Tragic accident – East Tyrol: Car fell into the depths – driver dead

Date:

A terrible accident occurred on a forest path in Schlaiten (Lienz district) in Tyrol on Wednesday! After her husband did not come home as agreed in the morning, the woman (60) reported this to the police. During a large-scale search, the terrible discovery was made: the 60-year-old had crashed his car on a forest path and died.

The man left for the mountain hut in the municipality of Schlaiten a few days ago and did not return home as agreed on Wednesday morning. The 50-year-old woman reported the incident to the police in Lienz on Wednesday evening. Because there was no mobile phone reception in Michelbachtal, she could not reach him. A self-initiated search with the help of relatives was initially unsuccessful.

The car fell into the depths
The police then started a large-scale search. As a result, the missing person’s car was found in the Klosterfrauenalm area around 11:30 p.m. The vehicle clearly went off the forest path and fell approximately 50 meters over steep forested land.

Caught under vehicle
The accident left the local man trapped under the car. The emergency services could only determine that the man was dead. He was rescued that night.

According to initial information, the driver may have tried to turn the vehicle around on the forest road. He probably went over the side of the road and fell.
