Frankfurt's OB Feldmann is said to have touched and damaged a parked car with his company car while maneuvering.

Frankfurt: OB Feldmann before retiring - possible hit-and-run just one of his problems
Frankfurt's Lord Mayor Feldmann has to answer in court on corruption allegations from October.
He announced his retirement from office at the end of January.
It is not yet clear whether the city councilors will nevertheless initiate a voting procedure this Thursday (July 14).
The second option for his withdrawal - retirement for special reasons - seems to be off the table: Last Friday, Feldmann named both options for leaving office on an equal footing.
In the meantime, only the deselection is mentioned on his “Transparent Mayor” page.
