Treasure in the forest! 92-year-old mushroom seeker saved after great use

In a remarkable rescue operation in Neunkirchen, a 92-year-old mushroom seeker was found alive. The man, who went on a mushroom search near Bürg-Vöstenhof on Saturday, was finally saved by the quick reaction of the residents and the tireless use of the emergency services.

It was not the first time that the Ternitzer parked his car in this place to search for fresh mushrooms. According to district police commander Johann Neumüller, he even asked in advance if he could park there. However, after the darkness broke out and the man's car was still in the same place, the homeowners were taken care of and alerted the police.

Professional search action in use

The alarm led to a large -scale search operation that included both police officers, a rescue dog squadron and firefighters. Drones were also used to search the forest area. "We have put on a large and perfectly organized search," said Neumüller. The coordinated use turned out to be extremely successful. At around 9:30 p.m. the slightly hypothermic man was found by a search dog in the forest area.

The incident emphasizes the importance of cooperation between the residents and the rescue workers in emergencies. "Fortunately, because it will be pretty fresh at night," says Neumüller, who is visibly relieved about the happy ending. This episode reminds us of how important it is to be vigilant and solidarity in the community, especially in the protection of older people in potentially dangerous situations.

While the first reports about this incident are already circulating, the importance of the fast alarm and the efficient emergency services cannot be highlighted enough. They are brave acts that often make the difference between life and death. The prudent action of the residents ensured that help came in time and the missing person could be brought back home safely.

In view of the cooler nights that now arrive, this incident is a clear call for caution for all mushrooms and nature lovers. It is crucial not only to think about safe places for parking, but also about emergency plans and the possibility that support will be required in the event of a long absence.
