An Aveyronnais tries to destroy a hornet's nest and falls 4 meters

A man in his sixties was seriously injured in a fall on Thursday evening in the town of Galgan (Aveyron).

He fell from a height of four meters trying to reach a hornet's nest on a house, report our colleagues from Center Presse Aveyron.

As the local daily reminds us, the firefighters no longer travel to destroy this type of insect nest in private homes.

They let specialized companies intervene.

This is perhaps what prompted the sexagenarian to try an approach himself.

Committed vital prognosis

After his sudden fall, he was taken care of by the emergency services.

Medicalized on site, he was then airlifted to the Purpan hospital in Toulouse (Haute-Garonne), in serious condition.

His vital prognosis was engaged at the time of his transfer, specifies
