In the quiet town of Ahlen, Warendorf district, a tragic night traffic accident involving a Pedelec rider has left the community in shock.

Early Saturday morning, a witness found a severely injured 16-year-old Pedelec rider on the road. The incident occurred during the night, and the search for the vehicle involved initially proved unsuccessful. Skid marks at the scene suggested a collision with a car.

Authorities have since identified a 19-year-old car driver as the person of interest in the case. The young man is alleged to have hit the Pedelec rider, causing severe injuries, and then fled the scene. However, he later confessed to the police, and his car, driver's license, and mobile phone were confiscated.

A blood test was ordered due to suspicions of drug use, but the results are yet to be disclosed. The injured cyclist was immediately taken to the hospital for treatment.

The community of Ahlen is left waiting for more information, hoping for the cyclist's speedy recovery. The incident serves as a grim reminder of the importance of road safety and the potential consequences of reckless driving.
