Found lying motionless on his stomach
The pensioner was riding his bike on the B 121 and suddenly fell heavily. He remained lying prone on the side of the road. A 44-year-old female driver from Gaflenz noticed the motionless man. She immediately called the emergency doctor and ambulance and tried to resuscitate the 82-year-old together with other drivers. A doctor also happened to pass by the scene of the accident.
Unsuccessful resuscitation attempts
Unfortunately, the resuscitation attempts were unsuccessful. The man's death was officially confirmed at around 1.15 pm.
The public prosecutor's office in Steyr was informed. However, as there are no indications that the accident was caused by a third party, the body has already been released for burial.
