Stuttgart: Five injured in Cannstatter Wasen ride accident

Five people were injured in an accident involving a ‘Breakdance’ ride at the Cannstatter Wasen in Stuttgart. One of the injured individuals reportedly sustained more serious injuries.

In separate regional news for Baden-Württemberg, Minister President Cem Özdemir indicated a willingness to reconsider plans for a mandatory final year of kindergarten. The proposal, which was a central campaign promise for the Greens and the CDU to make the final year free and compulsory, may now be implemented in stages rather than all at once due to ongoing criticism.
