“The tractor in which the 47-year-old driver was sitting was thrown to the right after the collision, where he crashed into the house,” police spokeswoman Irena Urbánková told Práva, adding that the truck drove to the left off the road only in front of the adjacent house.

“In the accident, the driver of a tractor was injured, who ended up in the care of the ambulance service and was taken to hospital. Alcohol was ruled out by breath tests in both participants in the accident, “the spokeswoman added.

Firefighters also intervened on the spot. “We assisted in the treatment of the injured and ensured the leakage of operating fluids and other safety measures,” said their regional spokesman Zdeněk Hošák.
