The Düsseldorf police are looking for witnesses to an incident that focuses on the safety in road traffic in an alarming way. In a collision between a cyclist and a car in Oberkassel, a 38-year-old man was slightly injured when the driver fled.

Details of the incident

The incident occurred in the late night of Friday, August 9, 2024, at 11:30 p.m. when the cyclist was traveling on the Kaiser Wilhelm Ring in the direction of Luegallee. Suddenly a dark -colored vehicle came towards him, which violates the traffic rules. The collision was inevitable, which led to a fall of the cyclist.

The reaction of the accident participants

After the accident, two men got out of the vehicle in question and asked at short notice about the health of the injured cyclist. However, when the police and rescue workers arrived, the two fled, and the circumstances of their behavior raise questions. Witnesses described the men as about 40 to 45 years old and in a dark Lamborghini, which was equipped with a license plate from Neuss (NE).

The importance of the witness calls

In such cases, the participation of the community is essential. The Düsseldorf police urgently asks for their help, which have information about the incident, the vehicle or the drivers. "Every little hint could be decisive," explains a spokesman for the authority. Witnesses are asked to report on 0211-870-0.
