Cyclist (70) dies tragically on the cycle path in Wörth – police are investigating!
A tragic incident occurred on Friday in the Rhineland-Palatinate town of Wörth. At around 3:30 p.m., a 70-year-old man was found on a bike path near Ludwigstrasse. He was lying on the ground next to his bike and unresponsive. The circumstances of his death remain a mystery, with initial investigations suggesting he may have fallen to the ground due to a medical emergency.
The situation after the cyclist was found was dramatic: passers-by who saw the scene didn't hesitate for long. They immediately provided first aid and called the emergency services and the police. Despite the resuscitation measures that had been initiated, the emergency doctor could only determine that the man was dead. It remains unclear whether the 70-year-old was still riding his bike before the incident or was already on foot. There is currently no evidence of the involvement of other road users, which makes the Wörth police investigation exciting.

Health on two wheels
