On March 26, 2025, a truck accident occurred in the residential area of Hohenlimburg, Germany, around 3:40 PM on the street "Alte Stadt."
According to the Polizei Hagen, transmitted via news aktuell, the driver of an articulated lorry, a 53-year-old man, was involved in the incident. Witness statements helped identify the transport company and the driver. However, the name of the transport company has not been disclosed at this time.
