A cyclist who was probably seriously injured has been missing since Saturday evening. He's gone since an accident.
Karlsruhe (dpa / lsw) - After a collision with a motorcycle, a suspected seriously injured cyclist in Karlsruhe fled from the scene of the accident and disappeared. As the police announced, the cyclist crossed the Adenauerring on Saturday evening without paying attention to the traffic. A 53-year-old motorcyclist fell while trying to avoid and collided with the cyclist. The cyclist probably suffered serious leg and facial injuries, which could possibly even be life-threatening, as the police said, citing witness statements. There was no trace of the cyclist on Sunday either, as a police spokesman said.
The man then fled into the adjacent forest, it was said. The search operation by the police with helicopters and search dogs was unsuccessful during the night. When asked whether a critically injured person could flee, a police spokesman said: "A lot is possible with adrenaline in your blood." The motorcyclist was injured and taken to a hospital.
