The vehicle column of Baden-Württemberg Prime Minister Kretschmann was involved in an accident on Monday. A car had entered the convoy on a wet road. A child has now succumbed to his injuries.
The one-year-old boy who was injured by the Prime Minister of Baden-Württemberg, Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) when a car collided with an escort vehicle, has died. The boy died from his serious injuries on Sunday, as announced by the Heilbronn police headquarters.
The prime minister reacted in dismay: “We knew about the critical situation the girl was in.” With each day that she was alive, the hope grew a little that the boy would make it. “I am full of sadness,” Kretschmann said. His thoughts are with the parents, who have now experienced the worst that can happen to a mother and father: the death of their own child.
The hydroplaning forced the Kretschmann convoy to stop
Kretschmann’s limousine, the first vehicle in a column, drifted out of the lane on Monday, presumably due to hydroplaning on Autobahn 81. According to police, the vehicle, driven by Kretschmann’s driver, first collided with a handrail and then crashed stopped on the shoulder. Then an escort vehicle and a police car stopped behind Kretschmann.
Another vehicle skidded a little later due to hydroplaning and crashed into the accompanying vehicle. The one-year-old was sitting in the back seat of the vehicle. The 33-year-old driver of this car was also seriously injured. The 29-year-old passenger was slightly injured. Kretschmann himself was unhurt in the accident.
The judiciary is also concerned about the accident. The Heilbronn prosecution has launched investigations into the baby’s life-threatening injuries. There is a suspicion of negligent bodily injury against a 33-year-old man who is said to have caused the accident, a spokesman for authorities said.
