Police in Delmenhorst looking for getaway Mercedes
A 58-year-old man is hit by a car in Delmenhorst and dies. The driver flees the scene of the accident. The police quickly realize that the car is a black SUV. It is now also clear which model it is. A special occupational group could now provide valuable clues.
The police in Delmenhorst have specified their search for the getaway car involved in a fatal accident. On Monday, there was still talk of a black SUV. Investigators evaluated parts of the vehicle left behind at the scene of the accident and were thus able to narrow down the search.
The black SUV is said to be an ML Mercedes. It is believed to be from 2007. This second series of the M-Class was produced between 2005 and 2011.
In the collision, in which a 58-year-old man was killed, the vehicle lost a wing mirror, among other things. There were also traces of paint on a 30 km/h speed limit sign, which the vehicle had also rammed into. After the accident, the driver fled the scene. The police set up the "Brendel" special commission on Monday. It is named after Brendelweg, which borders directly on the scene of the accident.
Garages should be vigilant
The police are asking for information about the vehicle. The appeal is aimed at the general public as well as garages or private mechanics who might come across a vehicle matching the description.
However, the officers are also appealing to the driver of the vehicle involved in the accident. "Anyone could be involved in an accident. Get in touch with the police and contribute to a complete clarification - especially in the interests of the relatives," reads a statement.
The black SUV, believed to be involved in the fatal traffic accident in Delmenhorst, is reportedly an ML model from Mercedes-Benz, produced between 2005 and 2011. Police in Lower Saxony are urging garages and mechanics to be vigilant for this specific model, as they continue their search for the vehicle involved in the incident.
