The criminal trial in Innsbruck for the attempted murder at a petrol station begins today: a Turkish man with a criminal record who was on drugs is said to have run over a young woman and almost fatally injured her. She was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The victim's father speaks in the "Krone".

Daniela L. almost lost her life at a petrol station in Telfs (Tyrol). The 25-year-old was crushed by a car - deliberately, as the public prosecutor's office believes. She hits her head on the asphalt. Then it goes dark. At the wheel: a Turkish man with several previous convictions under the influence of drugs.
