Crushed

A 63-year-old man died in Unterbuch (municipality of Buch-St. Magdalena) on Tuesday. The man was crushed between a tractor and a cable winch when he tried to remove a tree trunk.
A 63-year-old man died in a forestry accident in Unterbuch (municipality of Buch-St. Magdalena, district of Hartberg-Fürstenfeld) at around 3 p.m. on Tuesday. According to the police, he was working in a relative's forest. He wanted to pull away a cut tree with a tractor and a cable winch.
Trapped between tractor and cable winch
Apparently, the man was standing between the rear tire of the tractor and the cable winch and was trapped between them after the hydraulics were activated. He was so seriously injured in the chest area that the emergency doctor could only determine his death.
A crisis intervention team is now looking after the 63-year-old's relatives.
