On Monday, April 27, 2026, at around 3:00 p.m., a fatal accident occurred in the Wertheim-Vockenrot district (Main-Tauber district, Baden-Württemberg). A 75-year-old man was performing repair work behind his motorhome when the vehicle, for reasons still unknown, began to roll backwards on its own.
The man was trapped under the wheels. Firefighters freed him, but the attending physician pronounced him dead at the scene. According to police, the man had apparently not secured the motorhome properly. The criminal police have launched an investigation into the circumstances.
