Father and Son Slightly Injured in Accident

The accident occurred on the Katschberg federal road (B99) in the direction of Radstädter Tauern. The drunk driver veered off the road in a slight left curve, flew over the guardrail, crashed at the entrance to a parking lot, and was hurled against the tree. Father and son were taken to the hospital by rescue services.

36-Year-Old Tried to Leave Hospital with Child

Although according to the doctors a 24-hour inpatient monitoring of the child was necessary, the father left the hospital with his son after an initial examination. The hospital then contacted the police, who were able to stop the Lower Austrian shortly thereafter. The father behaved extremely uncooperatively and insulted the officers, but eventually returned to the hospital with his child for further examination.
