A FORMER beauty queen has died from injuries sustained during a mountain fall while she jogging in her home state in Austria.
Ena Kadic, 26, had been in a critical condition after plunging off the side of the Bergisel mountain near the city of Innsbruck in her home state of Tyrol on Friday.
Two students discovered the severely injured woman near the Drachenfelsen (Dragon rock) panorama platform overlooking the steep ravine of the Sill river.
Shortly after hitting the ground, Kadic managed to call her brother and inform him of the accident before losing consciousness, police said.
She was rescued by helicopter and taken to a hospital in Innsbruck, where she succumbed to her injuries on Tuesday morning.
On the Miss World Facebook page, officials posted their condolences to her family.
Their statement read: “It is with great sadness that we learn this morning of the passing of Ena Kadic, who represented Austria at Miss World 2013.
“After suffering an accident running along the Bergisel mountain, Ena has succumbed to her injuries.
“Our deepest sympathies go out to the family and friends of Ena, and we wish them strength in these sad times.
