A car breakdown for a Pole (32) in the Tyrolean Oberland came to a terrible end on Thursday evening: when he wanted to change a tire on his van in Mieming (Imst district), he was run over by a car. The driver of the car stopped briefly but then fled. The 32-year-old suffered serious injuries.
Around 10:15 p.m., the 32-year-old was driving a panel van on the L236 (Mötzer Straße) towards Mieminger Plateau when he had to stop due to a flat tire. According to the police, the Pole had turned on the emergency lights and set up a breakdown triangle.
The car ran over the driver’s legs
And then it happened: “The Pole stood between the vehicle and the middle of the road to change the tire. “Suddenly, an unknown driver hit the van with his car and then ran over the 32-year-old’s legs,” investigators said.
After a short stop we continued driving
The unknown driver stopped about 50 meters away and got out briefly. After a conversation with the Pole, he then drove away without providing first aid. The 31-year-old was seriously injured.
After initial treatment at the scene of the accident, the seriously injured man was taken by ambulance to Zams Hospital.
Find the driver of the vehicle
“Parts of a side mirror of the vehicle that was hit were found at the scene of the accident,” investigators said. According to current investigations, the fugitive is a local man with a dark van – probably a VW Transporter T6 (built from 2016).
