An unpleasant event occurred in Hildburghausen when a parked car had an unseven encounter with another vehicle. On Wednesday, between 11:18 and 11:39 a.m., a driver departed his gray BMW in the parking lot of a hardware store in Häselriether Straße. After his purchases, he suddenly discovered paint damage on the passenger side of his car. However, the cause of the damage had already moved away from the accident site without informing the car owner or the police.

The amount of damage amounts to around 300 euros, an amount that is annoying for many vehicle owners.
