Due to cardiac arrest
71-year-old crashes his car into a fence: resuscitation
A serious traffic accident occurred in Vienna-Simmering on Tuesday afternoon. A 71-year-old driver had to be resuscitated on the spot.
When the accident happened, the 71-year-old was sitting behind the wheel of his car. He suffered a cardiac arrest while driving and fell unconscious.
Witnesses rescued the driver from the car
As a result, the vehicle crashed head-on into a fence in Grillgasse, said Daniel Melcher, spokesman for the Vienna Professional Rescue Service. Passers-by pulled the man out of the car and began chest compressions under the guidance of the rescue coordination center.
A professional rescue team took over and the man was successfully resuscitated and flown to hospital.
