Baden-Württemberg: fatal accident at work when towing

Korntal-Müchingen (dpa / lsw) - An employee of a towing company was fatally injured in an accident at work. The 28-year-old was crushed by a semitrailer truck in Korntal-Münchingen (Ludwigsburg district) while he was working under it, the police said on Thursday. It was secured by wooden blocks. Presumably the man forgot to put on the handbrake and that's why it started to move. The man died in the hospital.
