Tragic emergency in the Ansbach district: man dies at the wheel!
A tragic incident occurred in the Ansbach district on Tuesday, June 17th, which caused the horror of a passer-by. At 6:23 a.m., a 56-year-old man was discovered unconscious inside his Peugeot. The woman who observed the scene doesn't hesitate and calls 911. But despite quickly alerting the emergency services, the man could no longer be helped. His death was confirmed just a short time later, reported nn.de.
The tragic circumstances were made more difficult by the fact that the incident took place on a local road between Görchsheim and Eyerlohe. The man stopped on the right side of the road about 200 meters after the Görchsheim town sign and vomited, which alerted the passer-by.
Traffic stops and police investigations
The intervention of the emergency doctors required the local road to be closed for around an hour and a half. During this time, the police were able to carry out initial investigations. It is suspected that a heart attack was the possible cause of death, as well inFranken.de reported.
A heart attack can be very stressful not only for those affected, but also for their relatives. The unimaginable often happens within a few seconds: loss of consciousness can occur after just 10 to 15 seconds and death follows in a very short time if you don't react quickly. Symptoms of a heart attack should therefore be taken very seriously. The Heart Foundation explains in a guide that if there is suspicion, the emergency services should be contacted immediately on the emergency number 112: “Speed of treatment reduces the damage to the heart muscle,” says the foundation herzstiftung.de.
Especially in such emergencies, it is crucial to remain calm and pass on the correct information to the rescue control center. This includes name, address and complaints as well as the location of the emergency.
This tragic incident reminds us once again how important it is to know the signs of a heart attack and to act quickly and correctly in an emergency. We wish the relatives of the deceased a lot of strength and condolences during this difficult time.
