Train crash involving a 15-year-old cyclist at a railroad intersection
In the quiet town of Euskirchen, a tragic incident unfolded on September 4th, at 7:28 AM, when a severe accident occurred at a railway crossing on Appelsgarten street.
The victim, a 15-year-old resident of Euskirchen, was cycling along Appelsgarten street from Kleinbüllesheim towards the city center. As he approached the railway crossing, he failed to notice an oncoming train from Cologne towards Euskirchen. Despite the half-barrier being closed, the cyclist rode his bicycle onto the tracks.
The collision between the train and the cyclist resulted in life-threatening injuries for the teenager. The specific train that caused the accident is not explicitly named, but it is known that a young man was seriously injured after being hit by a train at that time and location.
The Euskirchen police's traffic accident investigation team is conducting a thorough investigation into the accident. The trains involved in the incident were traveling from Euskirchen towards Cologne and vice versa.
At the railway crossing, the cyclist had to wait for a train from Euskirchen towards Cologne to pass. However, in a tragic turn of events, the cyclist failed to notice the second oncoming train.
The accident caused the railway crossing on Appelsgarten street to be closed for the investigation until 12:25 PM. The injured teenager was airlifted to a hospital by a rescue helicopter.
Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the victim during this difficult time. We will continue to update this story as more information becomes available.
