Overview

  • Nearly a year after a 24-year-old was fatally struck between Sünching and Riekofen, investigators remain without a suspect as the driver fled the scene.
  • The special unit BAO Unfallflucht examined almost 2,000 vehicles in the first three months and pursued technical analyses alongside broad witness outreach.
  • Earlier efforts, including a regional poster campaign and forensic checks on a recently seized car, produced no decisive leads.
  • Police have installed banners at the crash site bearing the message “Warum musste ich hier sterben?” with the victim’s photo, and they are hanging new posters in Sünching.
  • An information stand is scheduled in Sünching on Saturday, August 30, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., with investigators seeking tips on the victim’s movements between 11:30 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. and any sightings of a white SUV near Staatsstraße 2146.
