An elderly woman was trapped between a garage and her husband's car in an accident and was fatally injured.
That is what the police said.
Accordingly, the 86-year-old wanted to park forward in the garage at the couple's home in Sachsenheim near Stuttgart.
He let his wife get out of the car first.
It is said that the man then probably slipped off the brake pedal of the automatic car.
The rolling car hit the wife and trapped her between the car and the garage.
The woman, who is over 80, was taken to hospital with serious injuries, where she died in the evening.
