Lehrte – A truck driver was run over by a colleague at a rest stop in Lehrte in the Hanover region and then died. Witnesses observed how the two men got into an argument, the police said on Sunday. One of the two then got into his vehicle, rolled over the other and just drove on. The victim was injured so badly that he died at the scene of the accident on the night of Sunday, December 19, 2021. His identity was initially unclear.
After a manhunt at the rest stop, the officers finally found the suspicious truck driver and arrested him. Because the 38-year-old smelled of alcohol, a blood sample was taken from him. He is now being investigated for negligent homicide, fleeing a traffic accident and endangering road traffic as a result of drunkenness. He is to be brought before a judge on Monday.
