Accident in the Zillertal
Pedestrian hit by minibus on main road
Serious traffic accident on Wednesday evening in the Tyrolean Zillertal! A pedestrian (36) was hit by a minibus near Mayrhofen and seriously injured. The man had to be flown to the hospital in Innsbruck.
The German pedestrian was crossing the B169 in the municipality of Mayrhofen shortly before 7 p.m. in the dark. He was hit by a minibus with a Hungarian license plate and thrown to the ground.
The Hungarian driver (46) probably only noticed the pedestrian at the last moment and tried to stop his vehicle. However, he was unable to prevent a collision and hit the 36-year-old.
After initial treatment by the emergency doctor and ambulance service, the pedestrian was taken to the nearby heliport. From there, the seriously injured man was flown to Innsbruck Hospital by the Christophorus 1 emergency helicopter.
The Zillertalerstraße was completely closed on both sides for around 30 minutes and a local detour was set up. The driver and three other occupants were uninjured. The car was severely damaged.
