Men ride in tractor bucket: Two seriously injured in incident in Osterhofen (Deggendorf)
Accordingly, the front loader suddenly lowered while driving, so that two of the passengers got their legs caught between the ground and the shovel and were seriously injured.
A rescue team, including a helicopter, was deployed to treat the injured.
They were then transported to a hospital by ambulance.
The driver of the tractor now has to answer for negligent bodily harm.
