On Sunday, a nine-year-old boy from Vienna was injured at the Nötscher Kirchtag (district of Villach-Land).

According to the police, the child was watching the traditional "Kufenstechen," where men on Noriker horses ride through an alley and strike a wooden barrel with iron clubs. The boy, who was there with his grandfather, broke away to pick up a piece of the barrel. The next rider was able to swerve but brushed against the child. He was taken to the LKH Villach.
