According to the Munich police, the accident occurred on Monday, October 30th, around 6:10 p.m. At this time, an eleven-year-old girl from Munich was alone on the sidewalk in the area of the intersection of Allacher Strasse and Netzerstrasse, where there is also a traffic light.
At the same time, a 62-year-old from Munich was driving his Skoda on Allacher Strasse out of town. When the girl entered the road at the pedestrian crossing of the intersection, she was hit by the man’s car. According to police, the eleven-year-old was seriously injured in the collision, including her head and a shoulder. The emergency services took her to a hospital.
Traffic was hardly affected by the ongoing accident investigation. The traffic police have taken over further investigations to clarify what happened to the accident.
