Dog tragically run over: Police are looking for a fleeing driver in Wattenscheid!
A tragic incident occurred in Bochum-Wattenscheid on Wednesday, October 9th, causing excitement among the police and residents. A 30-year-old owner from Gelsenkirchen was walking her Chihuahua on a leash when the accident happened. Shortly after 7 a.m. she wanted to cross the street with her dog at the pedestrian lights. At that moment, the little dog suddenly stepped onto the street, where a silver car turning from Aschenbruchstrasse onto Günnigfelder Strasse hit him.
Worsely, the Chihuahua did not survive the collision and died at the scene of the accident, which greatly shocked the owner. The driver of the vehicle apparently did not notice the accident or ignored it and continued his journey without paying any attention to the animal. This incident caused horror not only among the dog's owner, but also among other passers-by.
Police are looking for witnesses
The tragedy of this incident lies not only in the loss of a beloved pet, but also in the fact that the driver appears to have lost awareness of his responsibilities on the road. It is particularly important to be considerate of pedestrians and animals, especially in densely populated areas such as Bochum. An accident like this shows how vulnerable living beings are on the road and how important it is to be vigilant.
Responsibility in road traffic must always be taken seriously. Police hope that the driver of the vehicle will eventually come forward and be held accountable for his actions. To avoid such incidents in the future, all road users should be vigilant and considerate.
