Drama on boat trip – father wants to save son (5) and drowns in the Danube

Father suddenly went under
The witnesses managed to catch and save the mother and child. But the 43-year-old suddenly went under and was gone. The now alarmed professional fire brigade in Vienna moved out with seven vehicles, helicopters and 34 men, nine of whom were fully trained and equipped divers. They finally got the man out of the water. “We found the family man after ten minutes of intensive searching with a maximum visibility of 1.5 meters at a depth of six meters,” said Christian Feiler, spokesman for the Vienna fire brigade, the APA. The site was about 40 meters from the spot where it was said that the man had gone under.
