Inexplicable mishap in Lübeck. - 1 fatality: Car runs over person lying on street

A guy from Lübeck quickly contacted the fire brigade and cops after the incident. Because the dude was pinned beneath the car's cab, the first thing rescuers had to do was apply hydraulic cushions to lift the black automobile, freeing the passerby. Unfortunately, relief arrived too late. The physician on site confirmed that he had passed away.

There's still not much information about how precisely this disaster transpired. Hansestraße is typically well-lit, cityscape street hosting a 50 kph zone. "So far, there are no signs that the cab driver was racing," reports a cop spokesperson. It's also unclear whether the person was already injured or passed away before the accident. The crime scene investigators have been taking care of evidence during the night.

To better comprehend this perplexing situation, the public prosecutor's office commissioned an expert to gather and assess the proof. The cops have not yet updated us about the victim's identity. The vehicle has been taken into police custody and the body moved to the forensic medicine department.

Both the cabbie and his 24-year-old traveler got out unscathed. The officers present were also made available any help they required.
