20-Year-Old Lower Austrian Woman Rescued from Mur

The police received an emergency call at 5:30 PM from a caller who reported a young woman with a yellow swim ring holding onto the Mur bank and appearing frightened. The officers discovered her on the right bank in the undergrowth but could not reach her. They calmed the woman until the fire brigade arrived with a boat.

Fire Brigade Rescued 20-Year-Old from Mur by Boat

The fire brigade reached the shore using a ladder and then rescued the 20-year-old by boat. During questioning, it was revealed that the woman from Lower Austria had participated in a guided "tubing" water tour with two friends, starting at the Kalvarienberg Bridge. During the tour, she became aware of the risk and let herself drift to the shore. Her friends continued swimming with their tubes downstream towards Augarten Bay but immediately went to the scene, as did the outdoor trainer.
