A tragic accident occurred on Monday evening on the A3 highway near Horgen, resulting in the death of a 32-year-old driver.

According to the Zurich Cantonal Police, the driver veered off the road for unknown reasons shortly after 10 PM, ascended an embankment, and then returned to the roadway where the vehicle overturned.

The driver sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The incident led to the closure of the A3 towards Zurich for several hours, with traffic being rerouted.

The Zurich Cantonal Police and the public prosecutor's office are investigating the cause of the accident, which is currently considered a self-accident.

Emergency services, including a rescue helicopter and local fire brigade, were deployed to manage the situation.
