Two injured
Serious tobogganing accident: Man crashed into a tree
A teenager (16) and a pensioner (71) were seriously injured in tobogganing accidents in Tyrol on New Year's Day. The 71-year-old was illegally tobogganing down a slope. This had serious consequences.
The accident involving the teenager occurred shortly before 2 p.m. on the toboggan run at the Elferhütte near Neustift in the Stubai Valley. The 16-year-old's mother had lost control of her toboggan in a bend and crashed. The toboggan continued unguided and after about 50 meters crashed into the teenager with full force. He suffered serious facial injuries as a result and had to be flown to hospital.
Accident victim was not wearing a helmet
The 71-year-old Hungarian who had an accident on a toboggan in the Kappel ski area is also in hospital in Innsbruck. The pensioner had skied down a slope shortly after 2 p.m. despite a ban. He went over the edge of the slope and crashed into a tree and then his head into a stone. The man was not wearing a helmet and was also seriously injured.
