A 52-year-old man who died after a crash at a private farming property in the state’s Mid Murray region on Tuesday, has been identified as Tim Noske.

Mr Noske was a beloved member of the Hahndorf community and ran the local butcher shop, Max Noske & Son, after his father passed away about two years ago.

Emergency services were called just before 8am to a farming property on Collins Rd near the town of Tungkillo – about 60km east of Adelaide – after reports a Polaris all-terrain vehicle (UTV) had rolled over.

Mr Noske, who resides near Woodside in the Adelaide Hills, sustained serious injuries in the crash and died at the scene.

He leaves behind a young family.

A local Hahndorf business owner, who did not want to be identified, said the Noske family had a long history within the town and were a big part of the community.

“We’re still in shock,” they said, visibly shaken by the news and holding back tears.

“I grew up knowing Tim … our hearts go out to everyone in the family.”

Another local business owner, who also did not wish to be identified, said they had been neighbours with Mr Noske for about four years.

“It’s really sad,” they said.

“He was a really nice guy, hardworking, a good neighbour and well respected in Hahndorf.”

Max Noske Son Butchery was established in the 1850s and quickly gained a strong reputation within the Harndorf community for their cuts of meat and authentic European goods.

In 1950, Tim’s father Max, moved to Handorf from Lobethal. By 1968, Max started working alongside his brother as a local butcher.

“He had the butcher’s shop and then he gave it away so I decided to build my own,” Max, then aged 77, told The Advertiser in 2014.

Max and Tim later went on to share counter duties.

“It has changed a lot. I can remember way back when a gentleman used to run the Savings Bank in the ‘70s and he used to milk a few cows,” Max recalled, speaking about Handorf when it marked its 175th year.

“He’d take them out of the town during the day and then bring them back at night for milking and they would walk down the main street on their own. You couldn’t do that now!”, he said.

A SafeWork SA spokesman confirmed inspectors were attending the scene to investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident.

There are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death and police will be preparing a report for the State Coroner.

It comes after a 77-year-old man died in the South-East in September after two ATVs crashed.
