Germany: Multiple incidents involving students reported
Several separate incidents involving students occurred in Germany. In Dossenbach, a school bus driver was forced to brake abruptly to avoid an oncoming vehicle, resulting in minor injuries to 12 students. Police are currently searching for the driver of the car involved.
In the Bamberg district, a school bus caught fire while transporting students to Hirschaid. The 64-year-old driver and 31 students managed to evacuate the vehicle safely before it was completely destroyed. Firefighters faced challenges due to the bus being positioned under high-voltage power lines.
In Schwelm, a primary school was evacuated following reports of a sulfurous smell and a possible gas leak. Approximately 200 children and 30 adults were affected. One teacher and three children were hospitalized as a precaution after experiencing symptoms such as nausea and circulatory issues.
