A 79-year-old Belgian tourist suffered a cardiac arrest in Gmunden after being seriously injured by another dog during a walk.
A 79-year-old vacationer from Belgium had to be resuscitated on Tuesday in Gmunden after a dog bite. His dog was attacked by another tourist's animal while walking on the esplanade.
The two owners tried to separate the dogs, during which the 79-year-old was begging in the arm by the woman's dog. When the emergency services arrived, he collapsed - probably due to the significant blood loss, according to the police.
He was resuscitated by the emergency doctor using a defibrillator. After stabilization, he was admitted to the Gmunden clinic.
