Allocations against convertible drivers: 13-year-old in Prora seriously injured

On August 15, 2024 around 9 p.m., a serious incident occurred near the youth hostel in Prora on Rügen, in which a 13-year-old student was injured. A 47-year-old man is suspected of having intentionally approached the boy after, according to reports, the student had occurred.

The shocking events culminated when a group of seven boys who were on the school trip were on Proraer Allee. According to witness reports, the convertible driver is said to have noticed the group and then turned to head directly to the 13-year-old at high speed. The collision was violent and hurled the child several meters into a green area. The BMW driver then removed from the scene of the accident with the convertible.

Investigations and ensured convertible

After the incident, the Stralsund public prosecutor's office immediately started. A search ordered due to the suspicion led to ensuring the alleged accident vehicle. The convertible was confiscated to check more closely whether it is actually the car that was involved in the accident. The owner of the vehicle, the 47-year-old, is also examined exactly to determine whether he was behind the wheel at the time of the incident.

The statement of several witnesses is crucial for the investigation process. These report that the driver of the convertible has risen to the student with a targeted steering movement instead of making an alternative movement, which indicates an intended action. The boy suffered serious injuries in the impact and was immediately medical care. The police asked the population to help you find the driver who quickly removed from the scene of the accident after the incident.

The search for the suspect

These incidents in which a person is intentionally injured raise numerous questions. The police encourage witnesses to report to clarify further details about the driver and the circumstances of the accident. This could make a decisive contribution to initiating the legal steps against the suspect and ensuring security on the streets of Rügen.

The case once again shows the dark side of the road traffic regulations and the importance of responsible behavior in road traffic. The authorities are faced with the task of not only accounting for the actors, but also restoring the public's trust, especially at a time when traffic safety should be a top priority.
