Dramatic moments – German holidaymaker falls into South Tyrol river in a strange way. Two young tourists played guardian angels and saved the 58-year-old's life in Italy.
The man slipped from the sidewalk over the embankment into the Ahr around two o'clock in the morning. Two tourists observed this, alerted the rescue workers and held the German and his head above water. In 2020, a drunk South Tyrolean from the Puster Valley in nearby Luttach raced into a group of 17 students from Germany. Seven people died and ten were injured.
