Möhnesee (NRW) – A house on a hillside, work on the first floor was in full swing when the terrible accident happened. A cherry picker falls over in front of friends and colleagues – both men in the work basket die.
In Möhnesee-Günne (Soest district), a number of helpers were busy Saturday afternoon renovating a two-and-a-half-story single-family house that was currently gutted. The men also use a telehandler from the garden and extend the arm to the upper level of the construction site. Two 29-year-olds climbed into the work basket, another young man (28) steers the heavy machine.

It was shortly before 1 p.m. when the elevator became unbalanced. He falls over and slides down the slope. The two people are thrown out of the basket. It is immediately clear that her health is critical – life-threatening.
An emergency doctor, two rescue helicopters and paramedics arrive. But nothing can help the two victims from Möhnesee and Dortmund. The men from the towns of Möhnesee and Dortmund die despite all attempts at resuscitation on the property.
