German police appeal for witnesses after hit-and-run collisions in Rastatt and Vogelsberg

Police in Rastatt are seeking witnesses to a hit‑and‑run involving a 15‑year‑old cyclist. On a Monday afternoon the teen was travelling on the bike lane of Karlstraße when a white compact car entered Josefstraße, struck the cyclist and fled the scene. The driver, described as about 1.55 m tall, slim, with short blond‑grey hair and a Russian accent, left a damaged rear‑right door and a partial “A P …” marking on the passenger side. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact the Rastatt precinct.

In the Vogelsberg district, police in Mücke reported the theft of a Xiaomi e‑scooter locked to a bike rack on Saturday afternoon. The scooter, bearing registration “286‑MWK,” was taken between 14:40 and 21:45. In a separate incident nearby, an unknown driver struck a parked Seat Ibiza on Schlagmühlenweg in Frischborn, caused roughly €700 in damage, and left the scene. Both cases are under investigation, and tips can be submitted via local police hotlines or online portals.
