The oppressive heat at the weekend almost proved fatal for a young woman in Traisen in the district of Lilienfeld. As the 29-year-old woman and a nine-year-old girl were trying to cool off in the Traisen, they were suddenly caught by a strong current and swept towards a weir.
Dramatic scenes
While the child was able to save herself by swimming to shore, the woman just managed to cling to a fish ladder before she was pulled into the depths by the whirlpool.
An alerted police officer and a passer-by became lifesavers: police inspector Jürgen P. and Romanian Adam R. jumped into the river without hesitation and brought the 29-year-old to the shore. There, the emergency doctor treated the woman and the child.
