A serious accident occurred in the Swiss canton of Sankt Gallen, just over the border with Vorarlberg. A biker crashed into a railing there, the motorcycle caught fire and the man was seriously injured.
The outing of a motorcyclist who was traveling from Wattwil towards Lichtensteig at around 2.20 p.m. on Thursday ended in tragedy. The 61-year-old suddenly left the road, drove over the sidewalk and crashed with full force into a metal railing.
The bike caught fire in the violent impact. The flames also spread to the rider, who was seriously injured and had to be flown to hospital by helicopter after receiving first aid at the scene. The road was closed for around two hours and not much was left of the motorcycle, which was completely charred.
