Hours-long operation
Minibus crashed into the Raab: pollutant alarm
The Gleisdorf and Sulz fire departments in Styria had to respond to a tricky pollutant incident: a minibus had crashed into the River Raab and oil barriers had to be set up.
The accident occurred on Thursday night in Sulz near Gleisdorf (Weiz district). For as yet unexplained reasons, the driver of a minibus lost control of his vehicle, left the road and crashed into the Raab right next to a bridge. There he got stuck in the water.
Driver climbed out of the vehicle himself
The driver was uninjured and was able to free himself from the vehicle. The Sulz volunteer fire department, together with a towing company, took over the rescue operation, which continued into the afternoon.
At the same time, the Gleisdorf Volunteer Fire Department's chemical alarm service set up several oil barriers to minimize environmental hazards and bind operating fluids. A barge from the regional fire brigade association was also requested. The complex operation did not come to an end until 7.30 pm.
