After an accident, the driver escapes with a 14-year-old pedestrian in Ertingen!

On Monday afternoon, an incident occurred in Ertingen, which moved everyone involved. Around 2:30 p.m. a 14-year-old student was on the road in the sports field when a gray car approached and she was crossing the street. The driver, a man about 20-year-old, previously turned from Krähbrunnenstrasse into the sports field.

The young pedestrian was touched on by the vehicle and fell on the street. Fortunately, the driver had noticed the accident and stopped. He got out of the car to look after the girl and asked if everything was okay. But after a short time he got back into his vehicle and just drove away.

The state of health of the student

Although the 14-year-old initially tried to continue her way, pain later occurred, which caused her to seek a doctor. The medical check showed that it had suffered minor injuries. While such injuries may seem low, the incident raises questions regarding the driver's responsibility.

The Riedlingen police station has now started investigations to identify the driver of the gray car. Witnesses are also sought that may be able to provide further information about the incident. The investigators ask for information on 07371/9380

The circumstances of the incident have the potential to trigger an important discussion about traffic safety and the behavior of drivers in dealing with pedestrians. The short -term hold of the driver and his subsequent departure are worrying and suggest that although a short -term responsibility has been perceived, the long -term effects have been ignored.

For further information on the developments on this matter, reference is made to the publication of the police, which could help to get more clarity about the events. It is to be hoped that the driver can be determined and that he will be held responsible for his actions or omissions. Such incidents are not only tragic for those involved, but also lead a light on necessary measures to improve safety in road traffic.

Further details are still unclear, but one remains to be attended, as www.presseportal.de reports.
