Tragic Christmas Eve drama: 27-year-old dies in the event of an accident in Motzlar!

The night before Christmas Eve, on December 24th at 0:05 a.m., a tragic traffic accident occurred in Motzlar, a district of Schleid in the Wartburg district, Thuringia. A 27-year-old man was lying on the street at Ulsterblick for an unknown cause when he was run over by an approaching Audi. The 64-year-old driver of the vehicle noticed the person on the street too late and could no longer brake. Despite the immediate rescue measures by the fire brigade and the subsequent delivery to the Fulda Clinic, the young man died a little later from his serious injuries, as the Fuldaer Zeitung reported.

accident course and investigation

The police in Bad Salzungen took up the investigation and commissioned an expert for traffic accidents to clarify the exact circumstances of the incident. The street at Ulsterblick runs in a quiet residential area and connects the village with the federal road B278, which leads towards Tann in the Rhön. The fatal incident caused great horror in the region. While the victim's family mourns their son, the authorities have blocked the road to recording the accident and are now examining the relevant evidence. Another serious accident occurred on the same day on a country road between Friedewald and Schenklengsfeld, in which a 16-year-old motorcyclist was fatally injured, as Osthessen-News reported.

The tragic events in one day make a lightly on the dangers in road traffic, especially in the dark season. The exact causes and processes of both accidents are now thoroughly examined by the responsible bodies in order to rule out another risk for road users, according to the police.
