Tragedy in the Puster Valley: Attempts at resuscitation fail – German girl dies in South Tyrolean forest
Rescue workers tried to revive the girl – but were unsuccessful. An emergency doctor pronounced her dead on site. A helicopter then brought the body of the German vacationer into the valley. The accident occurred at an altitude of 1,450 meters. Emergency pastors look after the family.
Great sympathy from family from Germany
The South Tyrol State Fire Brigade Association reported on the tragedy on Facebook. There is a lot of sympathy in the comments.
The case brings back memories of May last year, when a South Tyrol holidaymaker from Germany fell 80 meters into the depths. Mountain rescue found his body. Hiking alone is dangerous. Tragically, tragedies often occur and questions usually remain unanswered afterwards. Like after the death of a German hiker who died alone next to a panoramic path in the South Tyrolean Alps. (moe)
