A 29-year-old man was trapped between two tractors and seriously injured.
As the police announced to Mettmann on Monday, his tractor got stuck in Velbert on Friday afternoon.
Another tractor driver coupled the two vehicles together and dragged the broken tractor a little further.
When the 66-year-old wanted to get back into his tractor after the assistance, his trouser leg got caught on a lever:
Mettmann - He involuntarily set the tractor in motion with it.
The 29-year-old was between the two vehicles at the time and was trapped.
A rescue helicopter flew the seriously injured man to a clinic.
