Breuna/Kassel (dpa/lhe) - At a rest area in northern Hesse, a truck driver was trapped between two articulated lorries and fatally injured. As the police in Kassel announced on Friday, the 37-year-old's truck rolled away after the trailer had been changed for an initially unknown reason. The man got between his own semitrailer and the truck of his 58-year-old colleague who was standing in front of him.
The 37-year-old had previously swapped the trailer with him on Thursday evening on the A44 near Breuna. The 58-year-old suffered a shock in the accident. The police secured the 37-year-old's semitrailer for their investigation.
