"In the area of the valley station of the so-called Mittertrett lift, the man made a right turn to continue to the valley station of the Nordhangbahn. He noticed a group of children, who had just queued at the Mittertrett lift, too late," said the police. The skier was unable to slow down or swerve in time.
Swiss skier got off lightly
According to the initial diagnosis, a six-year-old boy suffered a fracture to his lower leg and another six-year-old (both Austrian) suffered a fracture to his hand as a result of the collision. "Both children were taken for medical treatment after initial treatment," said the executive. The 53-year-old Swiss man remained uninjured.
