A horrific tragedy occurred on a farm in Kirchberg ob der Donau (Upper Austria) on Saturday afternoon. A small child was run over and killed by a tractor driven by his own grandfather. The doctors called could no longer help the two-year-old boy. The horror is great.
That afternoon, the 66-year-old grandfather was working with his wheel loader in the stables of his farm in Kirchberg ob der Donau. It is not yet clear exactly how the terrible accident could have happened.
Two-year-old Roland probably ran after the tractor around 4 p.m. The grandfather apparently did not notice the grandson and overlooked him while reversing in his Hoftrac.
The boy could no longer avoid it and was hit by the vehicle. The shocked old farmer immediately raised the alarm. Unfortunately, an emergency doctor who rushed to the rescue helicopter Christophorus 10 could only confirm that the two-year-old was dead.
A crisis intervention team had to care for the relatives. The police are now also investigating suspicions of negligent homicide.
