Terrible accident late Wednesday afternoon in Hall in Tyrol: a five-year-old girl was hit by a car and run over. The child suffered serious injuries, including an apparent traumatic brain injury. The 82-year-old motorist was taken to the local doctor and had to temporarily surrender his driver’s license.
The terrible accident took place shortly before 5 p.m. at Stadtgraben in Hall. The five-year-old was hit by the car of the 82-year-old local resident on a side road near the Kurhaus. The girl was probably playing in a bush between the main road and the side road.
Child removed from under car by ambulance personnel
The pensioner apparently wanted to go to a bank. “He first drove through the bus stop area and then reached the location of the financial institution on the cobbled square there, which was freely accessible at the time,” police said.
Halfway through, the five-year-old girl was suddenly ‘hit’ by the car. “The child ultimately ended up under the car and was rescued by first responders,” investigators continued.
Admitted to the hospital shock room
The child’s father started the rescue chain and provided first aid to passers-by. After initial treatment at the scene of the accident, the five-year-old with suspected traumatic brain injury was taken by rescuers to the trauma room of the clinic in Innsbruck.
