A young tourist has died in the Klagenfurt clinic following a train accident. The police announced this on Monday evening. He was one of the 17-year-old Slovaks who were hit by a regional train in Schladming on Sunday, April 5. The teenager sustained life-threatening injuries. The relatives are being supported by a crisis intervention team.

The boys were apparently on their way back to their hotel around 6:30 AM when they were hit from behind by the locomotive, according to the police after the accident. Only one of the two sustained life-threatening injuries. The other stated that they were unfamiliar with the area, their mobile phones were not working, and that was why they were walking on the tracks. They neither saw nor heard the train.
