A tragic accident occurred on a country road between Altenhof and Dammwolde, near the town of Stuer in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Germany). A farmer died while changing a tire on his tractor, reports Agrarheute.
A 61-year-old farmer set out to the fields, but while driving he realized that his tractor tire was damaged and flat. He stopped on the side of the road and called a local agricultural store to get him a new replacement tire. The seller delivered it to him on a trailer, and that's when the tragedy happened.
During unloading, a tire fell off the trailer and crushed the farmer. The farmer died at the scene, probably from a head injury sustained during the fall.
