On Monday evening, a 20-year-old was run over and killed by a car on the Südautobahn (A2) in the Leobersdorf area (Baden district) after a fall with his motorcycle.

The driver of the presumably dark SUV committed a hit-and-run, reported the Lower Austria State Police Directorate. He was tracked down on Tuesday, and his interrogation was ongoing.

Traces on the vehicle of the suspect were identical to those at the accident site, said police spokesman Johann Baumschlager. The car was seized on the orders of the Wiener Neustadt public prosecutor's office.

Driver was tracked down

The young motorcyclist from the Neunkirchen district presumably crashed into the rear of a car without braking and fell. Subsequently, he was run over. An emergency doctor could only confirm the death of the 20-year-old. According to witnesses, the following driver apparently could no longer avoid the fallen motorcyclist.
