Four-Year-Old Forgotten on Mountain in Upper Austria
A group of excursionists forgot a four-year-old on the Grünberg in Gmunden on Wednesday. All the others - four adults and eight other children - had taken the cable car down to the valley, and in the general commotion, the absence of the little one apparently went unnoticed. It was only in the valley that the mother realized her son was not in the gondola, reported the police, who eventually ensured a happy ending.
Police Came to Boy's Aid
When the group arrived in the valley, the boy was already looking for them. This was noticed by a 49-year-old woman, who contacted the police. The son of the 49-year-old knew the four-year-old because he is friends with his sister. Thus, they were also able to inform the mother of the four-year-old, who was already desperately searching for the boy but had no way to get back up the mountain. A police patrol from Gmunden eventually picked up the little one, brought him down to the valley, and handed him over to his relieved mother.
