A tragic incident occurred on Monday afternoon on a farm between Grarup and Øsby, near Haderslev, Denmark, when a middle-aged farmer lost his life in a workplace accident. The experienced farmer was in the process of transporting a load into his barn using a forklift when the vehicle suddenly toppled over. The accident happened as the farmer turned the forklift and unintentionally drove over a 20-centimeter high edge. This unexpected event resulted in the farmer being pinned under the vehicle.
Despite prompt intervention and intensive cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) at the scene, emergency responders were unfortunately unable to save the farmer’s life. He was pronounced dead just 20 minutes after the accident, leaving the local community in deep sorrow.
Reports of the incident were received at 3:02 PM, and an investigation is now underway to determine the precise causes and circumstances surrounding the accident. Local police and labor authorities are collaborating to ensure that such tragic incidents can be avoided in the future.
