Man seriously injured
Car battery exploded in the living room!
When the car battery he had parked in his living room began to smoke, a Carinthian man tried to carry it outside - and it exploded! The 34-year-old was seriously injured and flown to Graz Regional Hospital by the rescue helicopter team. The battery had been tampered with.
At around 2.30 p.m. on Friday, a loud bang can be heard from the car battery parked in the living room of a house in the Villach-Land district and smoke rises. A 34-year-old man from the area wants to carry the battery outside quickly, but it explodes.
The force of the detonation rips the patio door from its anchoring and throws it into the garden.
The seriously injured man calls for help, a neighbor sets the rescue chain in motion. After first aid, the 34-year-old was flown to Graz Regional Hospital.
The Arriach volunteer fire department was deployed with 20 firefighters and carried out the necessary extinguishing work. The house sustained enormous damage.
Battery was tampered with - by whom is still being investigated
The Carinthian State Office of Criminal Investigation, together with the Carinthian Fire Prevention Agency and the Afritz police, have begun investigating the fire. The cause of the explosion has already been determined to be mechanical damage or tampering with the car battery. Who is responsible for the damage or manipulation is still the subject of a criminal investigation.
The seriously injured 34-year-old is currently receiving intensive medical treatment at Graz Hospital.
