Crash with house wall
Styrian couple die in car accident
Tragic accident on Saturday afternoon in St. Gallen in the Styrian district of Liezen: a married couple, aged 77 and 75, died after a collision with a house wall.
At around 2 p.m. on Saturday afternoon, a 77-year-old man from the Leoben area was driving on the B 117 in the St. Gallen area. The man suddenly lost control of his vehicle, according to the police. The cause is unknown.
The driver and his 75-year-old wife in the passenger seat left the road on a left-hand bend and crashed head-on into a house wall. "The vehicle then rolled over several times," the police write. It only came to a standstill after 70 meters.
Help came too late for both occupants
The emergency services did everything they could: The fire department freed the couple from the car. The driver was flown by helicopter to the UKH in Linz, where he died. The female passenger died at the scene of the accident.
The B117 was closed for the duration of the operation. Four police patrols, two volunteer fire departments with 30 firefighters, three paramedics and the emergency medical team from the rescue helicopter were at the scene.
