A 45-year-old car driver was killed in an accident on Thursday evening on the L307 between Halbturn and Andau.

The Hungarian citizen and his 28-year-old passenger had come to a stop on the road due to a breakdown and wanted to push the car into an adjacent field. A 20-year-old driver coming from behind apparently did not see this and crashed into the vehicle, the police reported.

The 28-year-old was uninjured. The 20-year-old was taken to Eisenstadt hospital with minor injuries. Two fire brigades were deployed with 25 members and a crane truck. The L307 was closed in both directions during the operation.
