Pedestrian injured
Drunk driver hits senior citizen: screams at police station
Drunk driving accident on Wednesday night in Hall in Tirol: a pedestrian (65) was hit by a car right next to the police station. Officers were alerted to the collision by the injured man's loud screams and immediately administered first aid. Explosive: the driver of the car was under the influence of alcohol.
The serious accident happened at around 11.45 pm on the Stadtgraben in Hall. The 65-year-old Turkish man wanted to cross the road on a safety path in the area when he was hit by the car of a fellow countryman (43). The driver must have overlooked the senior citizen.
Due to loud screams, officers at the nearby police station became aware of the accident.
