When fall is detected, does the apple watch sends also the location of the incident?

Yes it does. Our son had bicycle accident recently and was unconscious for more than a minute. His watch called 911 and sent all of his emergency contacts a text stating where he was and that he had a hard fall and stated that his watch had called 911. It then texted updated locations to us as the ambulance was traveling to the ER. What a wonderful feature to be able to locate someone in this type of situation!
