On Tuesday, a 32-year-old man was baling straw bales in a field right next to the Murtal expressway near Knittelfeld. For unknown reasons, he was caught in the rear part of the baler attached to the tractor and became trapped.
A worker who was mowing the lawn nearby became suspicious because the tractor had not moved for some time and went to check. He found the trapped tractor driver.
Although a large contingent of emergency services arrived at the scene of the accident after just a few minutes and were able to free the trapped driver, all help came too late for the man - he died at the scene of the accident.
Dog freed
