Sad news: One death at "Wacken Open Air 2012"

W.O.A. in a press release today:


"At this year‘s W:O:A festival a tragic accident took place on the camping ground. As far as is known now, a festival guest laid down on canvas-covered trailer, where he fell asleep. A power generator was also located underneath the cover and running, filling the space between trailer and canvas with poisonous carbon monoxide. As it appears, the person on the trailer was breathing in this gas and consequently died. After approx. two hours, the friends of the deceased went looking and discovered the lifeless body under the canvas on the trailer. Emergency services and doctor were called immediately, but couldn‘t successfully resuscitate the person. 

The State Attorney has started investigations."
