In the quiet town of Bocholt, Germany, a hit-and-run incident has left authorities searching for answers. On Tuesday, 12th November 2024, at 7:55 AM, a collision occurred at the intersection of Kuckuckstraße/Stenerner Weg.
According to the Kreispolizeibehörde Borken, a 47-year-old man from Bocholt was riding his Pedelec on the bike path of Stenerner Weg towards Herzogstraße. As he approached the intersection with Kuckuckstraße, a young female cyclist, estimated to be between 13 and 15 years old, came from the right.
