Influencer Laura Viktoria H\u00e4rtig<\/strong> has died at age 30<\/a> following a head-on bicycle crash with Olympian<\/a> Peter Runggaldier<\/strong> while on her honeymoon in Italy.<\/p>\n

H\u00e4rtig was involved in a serious crash while traveling through the Dolomite mountain range in northern Italy on June 23 when her bicycle collided with a motorcycle being driven uphill by Runggaldier, 57, per local media outlets. The incident occurred just two days after H\u00e4rtig shared photos<\/a> from her Italian wedding to husband Tilman<\/strong> via her Instagram account, captioning a June 21 post, \u201cSoulmate for life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Local reports allege that the head-on collision was so intense that it split H\u00e4rtig\u2019s bicycle in half and sent her flying into the road. She was reportedly resuscitated at the scene by medics and then rushed away for immediate medical treatment.<\/p>\n

The Mirror<\/em> <\/a>reported that H\u00e4rtig was airlifted to a hospital in Bolzano but her family later had her moved to Bavaria, where she died on Sunday, July 12.<\/p>\n

At the time, local police said via Facebook<\/a>: \u201cRoad accident. This morning the force attended a road accident at Passo Sella, kilometer 32+400. A motorcycle and a bicycle were involved. Traffic was stuck for about an hour. Intervened in support of the Canazei VVF, the White Cross of Canazei, Trentino emergency and the helicopter services.\u201d<\/p>\n

Per the outlet, Runggaldier suffered serious fractures and abdominal injuries in the crash.<\/p>\n

Us Weekly<\/em> has reached out to Runggaldier for comment.<\/p>\n

An investigation into the crash by the Trento Prosecutor\u2019s Office remains ongoing, per The Mirror<\/em>.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Runggaldier broke his silence via Instagram<\/a> to ask the public to respect his privacy while he heals.<\/p>\n
