An Austrian teenager was run over by a tractor twice - once when he fell off and again when his friend drove back to see where he was.

Hubert Hochstetter, 17, from the village of Kainisch, fell off the tractor as he and his 22-year-old friend Josef Mittringer were driving along the road.

He fell under the back wheels of the three-ton vehicle and had his ribs and arms broken.

But his pal Mittringer who could not see his friend lying behind his back wheels reversed to look where he was, and in doing so ran him over again, this time breaking his legs.

Mittringer panicked when he saw what had happened and drove off. But witnesses called an ambulance and the teenager was treated in hospital.

Doctors said that he will be in hospital for weeks but he's expected to make a full recovery.
