Overview
- A female cyclist was seriously injured after being struck and then run over by a delivery van at the Europalaan/Vallestap junction in Nuenen and was rushed to the Tilburg trauma centre.
- Police are investigating how the collision occurred while first responders treated the scene and accompanied the patient to hospital.
- Emergency services deployed two ambulances, a trauma helicopter and a trauma doctor, and Rijkswaterstaat closed a lane on the A58 to speed and secure ambulance transfer.
- Regional live 112 reports recorded multiple other incidents over the same days, including multi-vehicle crashes with injuries, two migrant living units destroyed by fire, a metal pipe on the Teuge railway that ProRail treats as suspected sabotage, and thefts from Bridge to Liberation’s production office.
- Locals say the Europalaan area has a history of collisions and the current investigation could prompt renewed safety measures and continued strain on traffic and emergency response in the region.
