On Sunday evening, a rock fell onto a road in Kirchbichl, Tyrol (Kufstein district) and was hit by a car.

The approximately 0.2 cubic meter rock had broken off from the "Grattenbergl," the police reported. A 17-year-old Austrian - with an 18-year-old and another 17-year-old Austrian in his car - then hit the rock with the front of the vehicle and pushed it 40 meters further. The driver was slightly injured.

Teenager was taken to the hospital

The teenager was taken to Kufstein Hospital by rescue services with injuries to his hand and head. The other passengers were unharmed. The volunteer fire department cleared the affected Lofererstraße. The lane endangered by the rockfall remained temporarily closed until the debris fall was clarified.
