A German coach fell over an embankment near Schladming in Austria. A vacationer was fatally injured. There are serious injuries. The bus comes from Passau (Bavaria).
Updated February 27, 8:30 a.m: The tobogganing trip near Schladming was supposed to be a carefree day with friends before the wedding. The bachelor party ended in a nightmare. On the way back, the coach crashed in Austria. The groom (31) dies in the serious accident. Seven people are seriously injured. The condition of the 51-year-old bus driver is critical.
The bachelor group consisting of 32 men were on their way home on Saturday evening when the bus fell over the embankment in the last bend before Schladming and overturned several times. First aiders were quickly on site, but for the 31-year-old any help came too late.
The groom came from the market town of Triftern (Rottal-Inn district). “It’s a tragic incident,” said Mayor Edith Lirsch, according to the dpa news agency. Everyone knows each other in the small town. Many of the young people are active in clubs. “That’s why you take a big interest.”
The commander of the Lengsham fire brigade speaks of a tragedy and a great loss. As the Central Bavarian newspaper reported, the 31-year-old had been active as a youth worker in the fire brigade for ten years and was very involved in his team. “It is still unbelievable for all of us and a huge shock.”
Updated February 26, 3:27 p.m: A toboggan trip by a tour group from Lower Bavaria (Passau) ended in a serious accident. On the return journey from Austria, the coach with 32 passengers on board came off the road in a bend near Schladming and fell several meters over an embankment. The trip is said to have been a bachelor party.
Particularly tragic: A 31-year-old died – it is said to have been the groom among the group. This is reported by the Austrian media, such as the Small newspaper. The bus driver (51) and other passengers were taken to hospitals with serious injuries. 26 passengers were slightly injured, reports the Schladming volunteer fire brigade on Facebook. After the bus accident, first responders were by chance immediately on the spot.
“Immediately behind the accident vehicle drove a bus occupied by fire brigade comrades, who immediately secured the accident site and acted as first aiders,” the mission report reads.
First of all, the cause of the accident is still unclear. According to local media, the police speculate about a brake failure. During the night it had only snowed a little there. In 2017, however, a similar accident occurred at the site. A truck that was no longer able to brake crashed over the embankment onto the flat roof of the garage. The truck driver was seriously injured in the accident.
February 26 update at 9:54 am: According to the latest findings, the German coach came from the Passau area (Bavaria) and was returning from a toboggan trip. The bus crashed in Austria late on Saturday evening. On the country road near Schladming, the bus with 32 passengers left the road and fell down an embankment. The coach is said to have overturned several times before landing on the flat roof of a company site.
Three occupants were trapped and had to be freed by the fire department. For a 31-year-old, any help came too late. The man died from his serious injuries at the scene of the accident. Another passenger and the bus driver (51) were seriously injured after being taken to hospital. The cause of the fatal bus accident is initially unclear. “The coach was secured on the instructions of the Leoben public prosecutor’s office and will be examined by experts,” the police reported.
