A mother from Villach experienced a few anxious minutes on Wednesday afternoon. Her two-year-old daughter locked herself in the car in the high outside temperatures. A farmer showed civil courage and cooled the car until the fire department arrived.

When the mother stopped briefly at the side of the road and got out, the accident happened. Little Emilia locked the Villach woman's car from the inside. When the mother finally realized that she could no longer get into the car, it quickly became clear that this was an extremely dangerous situation. At the time, the temperature in the Drau town was 32 degrees Celsius.

Farmer showed courage
The worried woman from Villach immediately called the fire department. "For us as the emergency services, it was clear that quick and consistent action was required at these outside temperatures," explains head of operations Harald Geissler, commander of the Villach main fire station.

And even before the emergency services could rush to help, a farmer showed exemplary civil courage. The farmer noticed the dangerous situation and cooled the Villach woman's car with his water barrel. "That bought us valuable time," explains Geissler.

When little Emilia could finally be freed from the hot vehicle, the Florianis cooled the two-year-old girl with extinguishing water. Finally, mother and child were treated by the Samaritans and are well again.
