Shock in the harvest: 28-year-old seriously injured in the event of an accident!

This afternoon, at around 2:30 p.m., a serious work accident occurred during the potato harvest near Kemme and Schellerten, parallel to the federal road 1. Investigator was busy with the harvest when an incident occurred. While the employees were attached to a tractor with a potato rotor, a blockade occurred. This led to a dramatic misfortune when a 28-year-old worker tried to remove the blockade and got into the machine.

The young man was trapped seriously injured. An emergency call was immediately discontinued, whereupon numerous rescue workers hurried to the scene of the accident. The Schellerten municipal fire brigade, two ambulances, an emergency doctor and even a rescue helicopter were involved in the operation. Such extensive rescue measures show the seriousness of the situation.

Because of the rescue work, federal road 1 had to be fully blocked throughout the operation, which led to significant traffic disruptions. The safety of the emergency services and the fastest possible transport of the injured were top priority. After the rescue workers managed to free the injured worker from the harvesting machine, he was flown to a nearby clinic with the rescue helicopter. However, no further information was published on the health of the injured person, which underlines concern about the seriousness of his injuries.

At 4:30 p.m., the police were able to pick up the blocking of federal road 1 again and release the traffic. Nevertheless, the disabilities in the area were clearly noticeable. Such incidents raise important questions about security in agricultural work, in particular on dealing with mechanized devices, which, as in this case, can lead to dangerous accidents.

The exact circumstances of the accident are now examined by the responsible authorities. The incident draws attention to the risks associated with agricultural work, and shows the challenges that workers have to face in this sector. More details about this incident are still to be expected, while the investigation is progressing. For more information, See the current reporting on www.presseportal.de .
