At the edge of the film festival in Cannes, a palm tree falls over and fell for a walker. The 30-year-old Japanese were taken to a hospital with head injury.
The accident took place on Saturday afternoon in the “Croisette”, the famous beach promenade of the South Franse city. According to “Bild” information, the victim is a young Japanese film producer who wanted to present his work “brand new landscape” on the side row.
Some eyewitnesses reported that the fallen palm tree was affected. Moreover, there was a violent gust of wind at the time of the accident. “I heard a cry, turned around and the palm was uprooted – I would say it was in bad condition,” said a Luxembourg festival visitor to the “Bild”.
Palm three meters high
A spokeswoman for the town hall said the Palm was three meters high and confirmed the wounded passer -by. He was removed by rescue workers. The police blocked the scene of the accident on the edge of the fight.
The Film Festival has been held annually since 1946 and lasts until 24 May.
