There were two car collisions in Salzburg's Lungau region on Sunday. First, two vehicles collided head-on. Three people were injured. A few hours later, there was another collision - on the Murtalstraße (B96) near Tamsweg. A total of three people were injured in the collision, two of them seriously.

Another alarm due to a car collision in Lungau: a 79-year-old German man crossed into the oncoming lane on a right-hand bend on the road from Tamsweg to Murau and collided head-on with the car of a 33-year-old Slovakian, including his passenger (46). The German suffered serious injuries. A large contingent of volunteer firefighters, police and the Red Cross arrived at the scene of the accident at around 5.30 pm.

The two injured people were rescued from the car by the Red Cross. The Tamsweg volunteer fire department had to cut the German out of the wrecked car using rescue shears.

The emergency helicopter Christophorus 14, which had been alerted in the meantime, took the seriously injured German to hospital in Klagenfurt. The other two people, one of whom was seriously injured, were taken to Tamsweg Hospital by ambulance. 

A breathalyzer test carried out on the Slovakian was negative (0.0 per mille). It was not possible to carry out a breathalyzer test on the German driver due to his injuries. The Salzburg public prosecutor's office ordered a blood alcohol test.

The emergency services had to close the B96 completely until shortly before 8 pm.
