A nasty accident occurred on Thursday evening in Flirsch (Landeck district): A Dutchman (68) had parked his defective vehicle on the side of the road without lighting. A short time later, a car following behind crashed into the vehicle. Three people were injured.

A 68-year-old Dutchman was driving his car in the municipality of Flirsch on the Stanzertalstraße together with a 62-year-old Dutch woman and a 42-year-old Swede at around 7.15 pm. He had to bring his vehicle to a halt due to a defect.
