Horrific crash on the A2
Fatalities and eight injured in an accident involving a minibus
A serious accident involving a fully occupied minibus on the southern highway near Traiskirchen (Lower Austria) claimed the life of a woman (48) early on Sunday morning, while eight other passengers had to be taken to hospital with injuries.
The driver (63), who was transporting eight Ukrainians, left the road in the direction of Vienna for an as yet unexplained reason. The minibus crashed into an impact absorber just before a bridge, overturned and landed sideways in the ditch.
Drone searched for supposedly missing person
A 48-year-old woman succumbed to her injuries at the scene of the accident, while the eight other occupants had to be taken to hospital. Just how difficult the operation was for the first responders at the scene was demonstrated by the fact that a drone was initially used to search the area for a supposedly missing person. However, this person was discovered a short time later in the wreckage after another passenger was freed.
The clean-up operation lasted until the early hours of the morning. Vehicle parts were scattered across the road and many objects from inside the minibus had also been thrown out.
