BERLIN (AP) — One person is dead after a truck struck several people in southern Germany on Friday morning, police said.
The 63-year old truck driver struck a group of five people close to the railway station in downtown Passau, police said in a statement. A 37-year old woman died of her injuries at the site and the other four pedestrians were severely injured, including the 11-year-old child of the woman killed, police said.
The truck driver was injured and taken to a hospital.
A spokeswoman told German news agency dpa that police are “currently assuming that this was an accident situation.” Police said an investigation was ongoing.
