In Carinthia, a ski tourer came across the body of a woman who had been reported missing several months ago.
More than half a year after a 74-year-old woman from Carinthia was reported missing in the Katschberg area, the woman's body was found on Friday. A ski tourer found the body in steep, difficult-to-access terrain, and an autopsy confirmed the woman's identity, the police confirmed a report by the "Kronen Zeitung" on Tuesday.
