Two separate traffic accidents occurred in the Rhein-Sieg District within a week, as reported by the Police in the Rhein-Sieg District.
On Friday, August 15th, a traffic accident took place in Sankt Augustin-Hangelar. A 29-year-old woman on a bicycle and a 58-year-old man on an e-bike were involved in the incident. According to the woman's claim, the man had no lights on and collided head-on with her. The man, from Cologne, fell and sustained minor injuries, and was taken to a hospital for treatment. His e-bike was damaged in the accident.
The man is currently under investigation for suspected driving under the influence of alcohol, as a blood sample was taken due to signs of alcohol influence. The original content of this report was transmitted via news aktuell from the Kreispolizeibehörde Rhein-Sieg-Kreis.
The location of the accident was on the shared pedestrian and cycle path along the Bonn Street towards Bonn, at the height of Linden Street. The damage to the vehicles involved was in the four-figure range.
In a separate incident on Sunday, August 17th, another traffic accident occurred at around 14:45 on Pastor-Breuer Street towards Langgasse. The driver of an Opel was a 65-year-old man from Troisdorf. The woman's bicycle remained undamaged, but the man's e-bike was damaged in the accident.
According to the e-bike rider's statement, he briefly looked at his navigation device, entered the opposite lane, and collided side-on with the Opel. The man sustained minor injuries but declined medical treatment.
The man is not explicitly named in the provided search results, but a 21-year-old man was investigated for DUI in the area on August 15, 2023. However, no definitive name is given for a male suspect specifically on that date.
